  • Spread the panko breadcrumbs in a third shallow bowl.
  • Dredge each shrimp with the cornstarch mixture, then dip in egg and finally coat with the breadcrumbs.
  • Lay coated shrimp onto a tray or large plate and place in refrigerator for 30 minutes or a few hours to allow coating to dry and adhere.
