Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.

In a medium bowl, combine flour, salt, and cayenne pepper. Pour beer into flour mixture and whisk until combined.

Holding the shrimp by the tail, dip them into the batter, completely coating each shrimp. Place shrimp about 4 inches apart on prepared baking sheet. Batter will puddle around each shrimp.

Bake 12 to 14 minutes, or until coating is golden and bread-like. Use additional baking sheets, if needed.
