The shrimp were fantastic and gone in no time!! I peeled the shrimp and removed the shrimp so all you had to do was pop them in your mouth. I didn't make the dipping sauce b/c I had bought a sweet chili sauce to go with the shrimp. Definitely shake off the extra flour mixture before dipping into the coconut. I used a deep fryer to cook these up and it worked perfectly.

I've made this twice. First I used apricot preserves, today I used peach. Both were excellent! I didn't have coconut this time but used just panko. Again, excellent! We love this recipe. We'll try it with oysters next time and maybe clams. Panko is great, very crispy and delicious. Don't like bread crumbs or cornmeal on anyting fried. This is great! Try it, you'll like it.

I really enjoyed this recipe. It is simple to make, yet a little time consuming. Make sure you shake off all the excess wet batter before dipping the shrimp into the coconut. If you don't you will get lumps of coconut that fall off the shrimp. The dip is quite tangy, I think next time I will cut back on the vinegar.

Since I wanted to use all my shrimp, but didn't want to eat them all by myself (although they were definitely good enough to do so, I dredged them and then froze them on a cookie sheet and once frozen, but them in a resealable bag. Later, I was able to fry up as many as I needed for the next meal. My husband and kids all asked which store I got these from and "would I please pick up more?". Definitely will make these again and keep some for the freezer to have on hand! Thanks as always to the Deens for keeping my family eating in, but feeling like we're eating out!!

We loved this dish. The shrimp had a nice sweet crispy flavor and the sauce was just like icing on a great cake.

While I had to substitute some ingredients for the dipping sauce, it still turned out fantastic. I used Ginger Pepper Jelly and Balsamic Vinegar and didn't add the crushed red peppers since the jelly had the peppers already added.

Turned out Fantastic! Will definitely make again!!

I receive compliments on how good the shrimp and dip are. I always say, "The food compliments go to Bobby Deen and the presentation compliments I'll accept myself!"
