Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Step 2: In a shallow bowl, whisk 1 large egg. Place 1/2 cup all-purpose flour in a second bowl, and in a third bowl combine 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut with 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper.

  4. Step 4: Roast shrimp in the oven for 8-10 minutes until golden and cooked through.
  5. Step 5: Meanwhile, blend 1 cup chopped ripe mango with 2 tbsp lime juice, 1 tbsp honey, 1/2 tsp red chili flakes, and 2 tbsp chopped cilantro until smooth to create a spicy mango dipping sauce.
  6. Step 6: Serve the roasted coconut shrimp warm alongside the vibrant mango sauce for dipping.
