Wok's For Dinner: Coconut Shrimp & Mussels
I've only made Coconut Shrimp one time, and it's been about 5+ years. I don't recall whether or not I liked the recipe, just that it was rather complicated.
I have avoided making Coconut Shrimp ever since, thinking it would be too difficult. And fattening, since it was a fried version.
But, tonight I tried a 2nd attempt at making Coconut Shrimp, changing things up and, instead of frying the shrimp, baking them in the oven. And I also threw in some mussels to change things up, and to make the shrimp last a little longer. My kids are HUGE shrimp fans...who am I kidding, we are ALL HUGE shrimp fans!!
This meal came together really easily & quickly -- right up my alley! The kids were big fans (not so much about the mussels, which they said looked like eyeballs) but they definitely raved about the shrimp. :D
Coconut Shrimp & Mussels
Ingredients:
1 lb peeled, deveined uncooked shrimp
8 oz mussels, fully cooked, shells removed
1/2 bottle sweet & sour sauce
1 1/2 cups shredded coconut
Directions:
Preheat oven to 450 F. Lightly grease a large baking sheet with cooking spray. Place sweet & sour sauce in a medium bowl, and coconut in a 2nd medium bowl. Add shrimp and mussels to sauce and coat, then toss in bowl with coconut. Lay shrimp and mussels in a single layer on baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes or until shrimp are pink and coconut is lightly browned.
