Firecracker Shrimp

These 5 Ingredient Firecracker Shrimp are amazingly crispy and crunchy and make for a fun and delicious appetizer. They're so good, you won't be able to stop eating them!

📝 Ingredients

• 2 to 4 cups vegetable oil
• 1 package wonton wrappers (or eggroll wrappers)
• 1 pound shrimp (large)
• 1/3 cup sweet chili lime sauce
• 1/4 cup peanuts (chopped)
• 1 bunch basil (fresh, chopped)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Heat the vegetable oil to 375℉ in a large Dutch oven or deep fryer.
2. 2Cut the eggroll wrappers in half diagonally.
3. 3Score the shrimp along the bottom to straighten them. Dip them in the sweet chili sauce, and place them on a plate.
4. 4Take a wrapper, place a shrimp in the middle, and sprinkle with peanuts and basil. Tightly roll the wrapper around the fillings, brushing a bit of water on the edges of the wrapper with your finger. This will ensure the wrapper won't open in the fryer.
5. 5Place the rolled shrimps into hot oil and fry for about 3 to 5 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
6. 6Garnish with more peanuts and basil and serve with additional sweet chili lime sauce.
