Recipe Essentials

  • Prep Time: 10 minutes

  • Cook Time: 15 minutes

  • Servings: 4

  • Skill Level: Easy

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Cannabutter or Cannaoil, melted

  • 1/2 cup All-purpose flour

  • 1/2 tsp Salt

  • 1 Egg

  • 1/4 cup Coconut rum (or substitute with water)

  • 1 cup Sweetened coconut flakes

  • 1/2 cup Panko bread crumbs

  • 1 lb Large shrimp, peeled and deveined

Step-by-Step Directions

  1. Prep the Pan: In a large skillet over medium-low heat, melt your cannabutter or cannaoil.

  2. Set Up Stations: Use three small bowls to prepare your coating station:

    • Bowl 1: Mix the flour and salt.

    • Bowl 2: Whisk the egg and coconut rum (or water) together.

    • Bowl 3: Combine the shredded coconut flakes and panko bread crumbs.

  3. Coat: Dredge each shrimp in the flour, then dip into the egg-rum mixture, and finally press firmly into the coconut and panko mixture to ensure a thick, even coating.

  4. Fry: Space the shrimp evenly in the hot pan. Cook until the first side is a rich golden brown, then flip.

  5. Finish: Cook for an additional 4–5 minutes, or until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through. Be careful not to overcook, as shrimp can quickly become tough. Serve your cannabis edibles immediately while hot.

Pro-Tips for Success

  • The Stoner Strategies Secret: Ensure your pan is at a steady medium-low temperature. Because coconut flakes contain natural sugars, they can burn quickly if the heat is too high. Low and slow is the key to golden, toasted coconut.

  • Consistency: When working with savory cannabis edibles, ensure your cannabutter or oil is evenly distributed across the pan so that each shrimp receives an equal amount of the preparation.

  • Storage: These are best served fresh, but if you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container. Reheat them in an oven or air fryer to restore that signature crunch.
