Shrimps Fingers

Shrimps Fingers

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.
