Honey Walnut Shrimp Shrimp Fra Diavolo & Scallops With Linguini Garlic, Pineapple, & Honey Grilled Shrimp

Honey Walnut Shrimp

Ingredients

1 Pound of Large Shrimp (Peeled and Deveined) 1 Cup of Water 1 Cup of Sugar 1 Cup of Walnuts 2 Large Eggs (Beaten) 1 Cup of Cornstarch 1/4 Cup of Mayonnaise 3 Tablespoons of Honey 3 Tablespoons of Heavy Cream 2 Green Onions (Thinly Sliced) Salt and Ground Black Pepper to Taste Vegetable Oil for Frying

Instructions

Add water, and sugar to a small saucepan over medium heat, and heat to a light boil. Add walnuts and let boil for two minutes. Using a spoon with holes in it to allow the water to drain, scoop out the walnuts and let them dry on a baking sheet. Rinse the shrimp, and pat them dry with paper towels. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper to season. Place mixed eggs in a shallow bowl, and cornstarch in a second shallow bowl. Dip the shrimp in the eggs, and then in the cornstarch to coat them well. Put oil in a frying pan until it is about an inch deep to be able to fully cover the shrimp. Cook the shrimp by frying them in small enough batches so they won’t touch during cooking. Cook each batch for about four minutes, and take them out and put them onto a paper towel. Mix the mayonnaise, honey, and heavy cream into another separate bowl, and whisk together to mix well. Toss the shrimp in the sauce to coat well. Plate them, and sprinkle the candied walnuts over the top. Add the sliced green onions for some color and a pop in flavor. Serve with rice.
