Directions
Prepare Peach Pico de Gallo. Mix all ingredients and set aside.
Combine ingredients for Creamy Peach Peri-Peri Sauce. Mix well and set aside.
Peel, devein, and rinse shrimp. Pat dry with paper towel and season with salt and pepper. Transfer shrimp to a bowl, add buttermilk, and set aside.
In a shallow bowl, mix flour, cornstarch, and panko. Set aside.
Heat oil in medium skillet on high heat.
One at a time, remove shrimp from buttermilk, and evenly coat in flour mixture. Repeat for a few of the shrimp.
Place a small batch of shrimp into the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pan to ensure the shrimp is crispy. Cook until golden and crisp on all sides.
Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel.
One at a time, dip each shrimp into the sauce, and then gently cover on both sides. Dipping one at a time ensures the breading stays on. Repeat for remaining shrimp.
*Instead of coating each shrimp, you may drizzle sauce over your tacos.Serve with Peach Pico de Gallo, and enjoy!
