Ingredients | Is Old Bay Seasoning Gluten Free

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined

3 large eggs, or more as needed

2 cups milk, or more as needed

peanut oil for frying

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 cups yellow cornmeal

½ cup seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)

Directions

Place each shrimp on a flat work surface and butterfly by slicing horizontally through the middle, being careful not to cut all the way through to the other side.

Whisk eggs in a bowl; mix in milk. Place shrimp in milk mixture and soak for 1 hour.

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Mix flour, cornmeal, and seafood seasoning together and pour into a zip-top bag. Place 5 to 6 shrimp in the bag and shake well.

Drop shrimp in the hot oil and fry until golden brown and opaque in the centers, about 5 minutes. Remove and place on paper towels to soak out oil. Repeat with remaining shrimp.

You can use Tony Chachere's(R) Creole Seasoning instead of Old Bay(R), if preferred.
