Low-Carb Crispy Garlic Shrimp

Crispy Garlic Shrimp on cabbageI have so many friends on ketogenic diets. I'm always experimenting with ingredients to come up with low-carb meals for them. This keto-friendly recipe is so good, you don't have to be on a low-carb regime to appreciate it. Crushed pork rinds and garlic powder are used as the breading for these shrimp, and they are baked in the oven, not fried. You could try things like almond flour in lieu of the crushed pork rinds, but I adore the depth in flavour they brought to the table.

Those look so good I can taste and hear the crunch of each bite! :)

I think that's very creative to use pork rinds crushed to bread the shrimp, what a great way to cook them.

You're welcome! They do this really interesting melting thing before they crisp and then they turn into these amazing "chip" bits on the sides of the shrimp. Weird to explain but you must try. I know you love your salty crispies, Suz-- hope you try em!

Could do! But plain old pork rinds seem to be easier to find in store, and only $0.79 where I get them :D

Do you use raw or already-cooked shrimp? (Looks like you'd use raw.)
