1/3 C Flour
1 1/2 tsp. Tobasco Sauce
1/2 tsp. Paprika

Assemble for frying of shrimp,one bowl for corn starch, one bowl for egg wash, and one bowl for cracker mixture.

One piece at a time dust shrimp with corn starch, then place lightly in egg wash then roll in cracker crumb mixture. Fry until done. Shrimp will float to top when cooked through, remove when done and place on paper towels.
