Cooking frozen breaded butterfly shrimp is simple and can be done in several ways: baking, frying, or air frying. Here are the steps for each method:
Baking
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C).
- Prepare the baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly coat it with cooking spray.
- Arrange the shrimp: Place the frozen breaded butterfly shrimp on the baking sheet in a single layer. Ensure they are not touching each other.
- Bake: Bake the shrimp in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, turning them over halfway through the cooking time. They should be golden brown and crispy.

Frying
- Heat the oil: Heat about 2-3 inches of vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 350°F (175°C).
- Fry the shrimp: Carefully add the frozen breaded butterfly shrimp to the hot oil. Fry them in batches to avoid overcrowding.
- Cook: Fry for 2-3 minutes or until the shrimp are golden brown and crispy.
- Drain: Remove the shrimp with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve: Let the shrimp cool slightly before serving.
Air Frying
