CHEW THE RIGHT THING
BITE IT!
HGs Rockin' Poppin' Shrimp
Swap-corn Shrimp!
Coming up with a popcorn shrimp swap was no easy task, 'cuz as you know,
those breaded sea critters have nothing at all to do with popcorn, and
EVERYTHING to do with fried greasiness. With the help of our favorite fiber-
ific cereal and a fat-free egg sub, we churned out crunch-alicious shrimp so
good you'd swear they were packed with gazillions of calories (but they
aren't... Woohoo!). There are actually less than 200 calories in the whole
entire batch; so shrimp it up, baby!
Ingredients:
3 oz. raw shrimp; peeled, deviened and cleaned
1/4 cup Egg Beaters, Original
1/2 cup Fiber One bran cereal
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pour Egg Beaters into a bowl. Using a
blender or food processor, grind Fiber One cereal to a breadcrumb-like
consistency. Pour Fiber One crumbs into a plastic container that has an
airtight lid (or into a plastic food storage bag). Add as much salt & pepper to
Fiber One as you like. Next, prepare the shrimp by ensuring that they are as
dry as possible (use a paper towel to soak up moisture). Place shrimp in
dish with Egg Beaters and coat them thoroughly. Transfer shrimp to Fiber
One container or bag and secure lid/ seal bag. Then shake until shrimp are
well coated. Place shrimp on a baking dish sprayed with nonstick cooking
spray. Cook shrimp for 15 20 minutes (flipping them about halfway
through), until outsides are crispy. Let em cool; then serve 'em alone, with
ketchup or with some cocktail sauce.

Long John Silver's Popcorn Shrimp
Blimp Shrimp!
WOW...it must take a lot of effort to turn a bunch of innocent, low-calorie
shrimp into a greasy, fatty plate of horribleness. Clearly the folks at Long
John Silver's are up to that task, because a platter of their Popcorn Shrimp
contains 730 calories and 42 grams of fat! And that's without any sides or
dipping sauce. How embarrassing! Still, we gotta admit, we're only human
and sometimes we get cravings for fried seafood. When this happens, we
resist the urge to order this stuff at restaurants, and get a little creative at
home. We suggest you do the same with our Rockin' Poppin' Shrimp recipe!
