How to Make Fried Shrimp without Breadcrumbs
Since this is a keto fried shrimp recipe, it needs to be low carb and breading is usually not low carb. Since I am using pork rinds, this recipe stays low carb. The pork rinds are low carb and keto-friendly and it gives a panko like crispiness and crunch.
What to serve with Keto Breaded Shrimp
Think of the foods you like to serve with traditional fried shrimp. Roasted vegetables or a side salad goes great with this shrimp. Or use the shrimp in the salad as the protein. Another option is to have cauliflower mash or a loaded cauliflower casserole.
How to Store
If you have leftovers, or you make a larger batch with the idea of having extras for later on, you can store these shrimp in an airtight container or freezer bag in the refrigerator. It will stay good for 2-3 days.
How to Reheat these shrimp
If you want to reheat your shrimp, I recommend the oven. While the microwave will heat them through, it will not have the same crunch. In the over or air fryer is the best idea. If heating in the oven, spray with a little cooking spray to help the pork rind crust become crunchy again.
