This coconut shrimp is like candy. Pretty much the entire batch I made was gone by the end of the night. It’s sweet and crunchy, and the Greek yogurt sauce just balances the flavors out really nicely. And best of all, this is all lactose free (I recently discovered that yogurt is usually okay for people with a lactose intolerance…yay!) It does take a little bit of time to prepare, and several different steps, but it’s so worth it.
