As a fish lover, coming up with new ideas on how to prepare shrimps was not only fun but a bit challenging. Challenging as they cook fast, therefore, needed something that can be delicious, fast to prepare and that everyone will enjoy. You are in for a treat! Not only it took me less than 20 minutes from beginning to end, but the plate was gone and seconds were asked.
I am using panko breadcrumbs which are flakier and stay intact when you cook them. Blended with the dill it gives it a more aromatic flavor and goes to perfection with the shrimps. This is a personal pet peeve of mine, but I do not like to leave the tail on the shrimps. Somehow, and notice around you, when the tail is on, most of us do not eat the tender part that is under the shell. And if you have little ones around, you know they will leave that part for you to enjoy. Worse, it will end in the garbage. Thus, I removed them and always cook my shrimps without them. A crisp mixed green salad with vinaigrette was the perfect compliment to the shrimps.
