Ingredients:
· 1 lb. shelled and deveined large shrimp
· 1/2 cup gluten-free flour
· 1/4 cup cornstarch
· 2 egg whites
· 1 cup walnuts

Instructions:
-
Begin by blanching your walnuts in boiling water for about ten minutes, then drain, set aside and allow them to cool.

In the meantime, pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. Combine your gluten-free flour and cornstarch in a shallow dish. Beat egg whites until frothy in a separate dish.

Dip each shrimp into the frothy egg whites, allowing the excess to drip off, and then coat thoroughly in the flour-cornstarch mixture.

Fry the shrimp in hot oil (375°F) until golden brown. It usually takes 3-5 minutes. Ensure not to overcrowd the pan, doing it in batches if necessary. Once crispy, remove from oil and place them on a wire rack.

It’s time to prepare the honey sauce. Mix together honey, mayonnaise, and lemon juice until smooth.

Now, toss the fried shrimp and walnuts into the honey-mayo mixture. Stir gently until everything is well coated.
