Deep Crispy Fried Shrimps Recipe

I love seafood especially shrimps, whether they are deep fried or steamed.Whenever I go to a seafood restaurant like Captain D's, I usually order fried shrimps. Unfortunately,  they do not make them  like they use to. Recently the one in my town's food is very greasy . So I decided to try and make my own shrimps at home. While I was walking through the international isle at my local grocery store, I was drawn to an item in the Asian isle.  I found this bread crumbs coating to make fried shrimps. You guys know that I had to try this product. The fried shrimps on the box look so delicious. I picked up the ingredients to prepare this delicious shrimp appetizer. I put my own twist into the recipe and came up with these delicious shrimps.
