I\u2019ve also included easy swaps and fun variations below (hello, air fryer option!) so you can make them your own. Trust me, once you taste that golden coconut crunch with the warm tortillas and bright, tangy salsa, you\u2019ll be hooked!<\/p>\n<div class=\"block-callout icon-callout\">\n<div class=\"block-callout__innerBlocks\">\n<p>Fresh shrimp is such a treat, but it isn\u2019t always the most budget-friendly option. I like to use frozen X-large shrimp and thaw them myself. It\u2019s usually more affordable, and they\u2019re just as delicious once they\u2019re cooked up golden and crispy. If you happen to score a great deal on fresh shrimp, definitely go for it, but frozen is usually the best bang for your buck!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"block-callout__icon-arrow\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"67\" height=\"36\" viewbox=\"0 0 67 36\"><path d=\"M31.035 17.043c-3.032.319-6.09.472-9.14.533-3.992.078-4.45-.045-4.324-4.172.013-.417.264-1.964.016-2.414-.696.302-11.452 6.87-15.961 9.782-1.537.993-2.514 2.284-.449 3.634 5.249 3.434 10.586 7.278 16.228 10.867.113-1.732-.085-3.01-.05-3.473.346-4.76 1.026-3.911 5.6-4.417 6.997-.775 14.1-1.037 20.968-2.44 12.123-2.472 20.075-9.7 22.58-22.176.12-.59.156-1.198.32-2.494C57.853 13.2 44.654 15.61 31.034 17.043Z\" fill=\"#000\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"block-area block-area-before-recipe\">\n<div class=\"dpsp-post-pinterest-image-hidden\" style=\"display: none;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"1200\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Coconut-Shrimp-Tacos-PIN2.jpg\" data-pin-title=\"Coconut Shrimp Tacos\" data-pin-description=\"This easy Coconut Shrimp Tacos recipe has crispy coconut-panko shrimp, sweet and spicy pineapple salsa, and fresh toppings.

Use kitchen tongs to gently flip the shrimp over and continue cooking for 2 more minutes.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" alt=\"Freshly fried coconut shrimp on a paper towel.\" class=\"wp-image-122146\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp-368x276.jpg 368w, https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp-268x200.jpg 268w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 736px) 100vw, 736px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp.jpg\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp.jpg\" alt=\"Freshly fried coconut shrimp on a paper towel.\" class=\"wp-image-122146\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp-368x276.jpg 368w, https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp-268x200.jpg 268w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 736px) 100vw, 736px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/6-dry-shrimp.jpg\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Drain the fried shrimp: <\/strong>Immediately remove the shrimp from the oil to avoid overcooking and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate.

The oil should be between 350 and 365\u2109 before frying, and maintain that temperature throughout the process (I use a meat thermometer to check the temp). If the oil keeps dropping in temperature during cooking, reduce the amount of shrimp in the skillet and work in smaller batches.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t overcook them!<\/strong> Believe me when I say that shrimp cook FAST. 2 minutes on each side is all you need. Shrimp are fully cooked when the internal temperature reaches 145\u00b0F.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Let them drain on a paper towel<\/strong> right after frying to keep them light and crispy, not greasy. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"block-callout__icon-arrow\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"67\" height=\"36\" viewbox=\"0 0 67 36\"><path d=\"M31.035 17.043c-3.032.319-6.09.472-9.14.533-3.992.078-4.45-.045-4.324-4.172.013-.417.264-1.964.016-2.414-.696.302-11.452 6.87-15.961 9.782-1.537.993-2.514 2.284-.449 3.634 5.249 3.434 10.586 7.278 16.228 10.867.113-1.732-.085-3.01-.05-3.473.346-4.76 1.026-3.911 5.6-4.417 6.997-.775 14.1-1.037 20.968-2.44 12.123-2.472 20.075-9.7 22.58-22.176.12-.59.156-1.198.32-2.494C57.853 13.2 44.654 15.61 31.034 17.043Z\" fill=\"#000\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-variations-to-try\">Variations to Try!<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I know <strong>allspice<\/strong> can be an unusual spice to have in your kitchen. If<strong> you don\u2019t have it, you don\u2019t have to add it! <\/strong>Have fun with seasoning your flour with what you already have.<\/li>\n<li>I love using <strong>panko breadcrumbs<\/strong> because it adds the best crunch to the shrimp. You can use <strong>regular breadcrumbs<\/strong>, but they\u2019ll have a slightly different texture.<\/li>\n<li>If you absolutely <strong>dislike sweetened shredded coconut<\/strong>, don\u2019t worry. You can <strong>omit the coconut<\/strong> <strong>and<\/strong> <strong>coat your shrimp in panko or regular breadcrumbs<\/strong> <strong>only<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>I had <strong>small flour tortillas<\/strong> in my kitchen, so I loaded my coconut shrimp in them.<strong> Corn tortillas<\/strong> also work great.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t fancy tacos today? You can add the cooked shrimp to a <strong>salad<\/strong>, serve them as an <strong>appetizer<\/strong> with your favorite dipping sauce (I\u2019d go for our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/comeback-sauce\/\">comeback sauce<\/a>), or use them to make a fun <a href=\"https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/shrimp-po-boys\/\"><strong>shrimp po\u2019boy sandwich<\/strong><\/a>!<\/li>\n<li>Switch the pineapple salsa for your favorite store-bought option. Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/chipotle-peach-salsa\/\">chipotle peach salsa<\/a> would also be delicious.<\/li>\n<li>You can <strong>air-fry the coconut shrimp<\/strong>, but I personally don\u2019t find them as satisfying as fried. Spray the breaded shrimp with nonstick cooking spray, cook for 2 minutes at 400\u00b0F, flip the shrimp, and cook for another 2 minutes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-serving-suggestions\">Serving Suggestions<\/h2>\n<p>When I make this coconut shrimp tacos recipe, I love piling them high with creamy avocado slices, a handful of fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime. Some thinly sliced radishes, fresh or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/pickled-jalapenos\/\">pickled jalape\u00f1os<\/a>, or a drizzle of spicy mayo would also be fun. For a more complete meal, I\u2019d serve them with a side of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/cilantro-lime-rice\/\">cilantro lime rice<\/a>, extra pineapple salsa for scooping, and a big batch of crispy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.budgetbytes.com\/air-fryer-tortilla-chips\/\">air fryer tortilla chips<\/a>. If summer was a dish\u2026it would be this one!!<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-storage-amp-reheating\">Storage &amp; Reheating<\/h2>\n<p>This recipe is best served fresh because it\u2019s easy to accidentally overcook the shrimp during reheating. But, if you have any leftovers, they can be stored (unassembled) in separate airtight containers in the fridge. The coconut shrimp will last 2-3 days, while the pineapple salsa will be good for about 3-4 days. Gently reheat the shrimp in an air fryer or in the oven until heated through. You can also freeze the shrimp for up to 3 months!<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"cp-load-after-post\"\/><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don\u2019t usually go for desserts with shredded coconut, but I can never resist coconut shrimp.
