Bowl

Whisk

Mix all ingredients for the sauce together and refrigerate until ready for serving.

In a medium bowl, mix flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt and pepper. To the bowl add the hot sauce, egg, buttermilk and whisk until you have a smooth batter.

Add the shrimp to the bowl, toss to make sure each piece is coated in the batter and set aside.

In another bowl add about a cup of Panko breadcrumbs.

Coat each shrimp with breadcrumbs, add more breadcrumbs as needed.

Heat oil in a skillet. Once the oil is hot, fry the shrimp for 2 minutes on each side till they are a light golden brown. You may need to do this in batches so as to not overcrowd the shrimp. Transfer the cooked shrimp to a plate lined with paper towels and pat any extra oil.
