Shrimp Chips

Shrimp Chips, also known as prawn chips or prawn crackers, are a light and crispy, savory snack. You only need 3 ingredients and about 10 seconds to cook a batch, and they're totally customizable!

📝 Ingredients

• 2 ounces uncooked prawn crackers
• Canola oil (or other neutral oil (amount will depend on the size of your pot))
• 1 teaspoon Morton kosher salt
• 1/2 cup sweet chili sauce (optional for dipping)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Add 2” of canola oil to a large Dutch oven (or other deep, heavy pot) set over medium-high heat.
2. 2Line a rimmed sheet pan with a layer of paper towels, or place a wire baking rack inside the sheet pan. Set it aside.
3. 3When the oil reaches 385°F, carefully add a small handful of prawn crackers (about 5-8 depending on the size of your Dutch oven). The crackers will puff up almost immediately. When they float to the top of the oil, after 5-10 seconds or so, remove them with a wire spider strainer or tongs and place them on the prepared sheet pan. Sprinkle with a bit of salt.
4. 4Repeat step 3 with the remaining prawn crackers.
5. 5Serve immediately, with optional sweet chili sauce for dipping.
