Ingredients
For the Recipe | |
|---|---|
| ¼ | cup Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Dressing |
| 1 | tablespoon mayonnaise |
| 2 | tablespoons barbecue sauce (any variety) |
| 1 | cup canola oil |
| 1 | lb medium shrimp, raw, shelled and de-veined |
| 1 | cup panko breadcrumbs |
| 1 | tablespoon lemon zest (from one lemon) |
| 1 | teaspoon salt, divided |
| ½ | teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
| 4 | red potatoes, cut into disks |
| 2 | long hot peppers, thinly sliced into rounds |
| 2 | tablespoons chives, minced |
Instructions
For the Barbecue Ranch Sauce | |
|---|---|
| 1. | Combine Hidden Valley Ranch dressing, mayonnaise, and barbecue sauce in a small bowl. Stir well to blend the flavors and set aside. |
For the Shrimp and Potatoes | |
| 1. | Heat canola oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. |
| 2. | In a separate bowl, mix panko breadcrumbs, lemon zest, 1/2 tsp salt, and pepper. Thoroughly coat the shrimp with the breadcrumb mixture. |
| 3. | Test the temperature of the oil by dropping a few breadcrumbs in - they should sizzle without browning immediately. |
| 4. | Fry the potato slices in the oil until they turn golden brown, approximately 3 minutes. Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. |
| 5. | Working in batches, fry the shrimp and long hot pepper slices together until the shrimp are pink and the coating is golden brown, about 2 minutes per batch. Drain on the same paper towel-lined plate as the potatoes and sprinkle with the remaining salt. |
| 6. | Combine the shrimp, potatoes, and peppers in a bowl. Toss them with the barbecue ranch sauce until evenly coated. Transfer to a serving plate, garnish with minced chives, and serve immediately. |
