To achieve crispy and succulent shrimp, start with fresh and deveined jumbo shrimp. Pat them dry to remove excess moisture, allowing the breading to adhere better. Create a simple yet flavorful coating by combining salt, pepper, and a touch of cornstarch. Gently toss the shrimp in the mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated. Deep-fry the shrimp until they turn golden brown and achieve that satisfying crunch.
