I was about to make some fried shrimp tacos the usual way and do the breading on the shrimp with pork panko from pork rinds and thought, “Hmmm, I have an open package of Fox Hill Kitchens Bread Mix, I wonder what would happen if I used it for breading?”


So I started out with cleaned jumbo shrimp.


Then I seasoned the shrimp with a seasoning salt and pepper that has garlic. I buy this at Walmart.


























I prepared the eggs and Fox Hill Kitchens Bread Mix. I started out with 3 tablespoons of bread mix at 3 carbs per tablespoon. I ended up doubling this because I dipped the shrimp in the bread mix, then in egg, then back in the bread mix. I just thought the egg would stick better this way, but you could save carbs by judt dipping in the bread mix once. It probably will work fine. I added to the bread mix, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, and minced garlic. You can add whatever spices you like.

The shrimp are now breaded and ready to fry.



I used avocado oil for frying, but use the oil of your choice. The breading browns very fast so watch the shrimp continually. Fry for about a minute on each side at medium high heat.



Remove when done and place on a paper towel to drain.



I was in a hurry and I didn’t have time to make the Fox Hill Kitchens tortillas, but had these Mr. Tortilla tortillas in the Pico de Gallo flavor ready to go. I like these tortillas a lot, but they do contain some ingredients that are not entirely good keto ingredients, but they are only 3 carbs apiece so I use them every once in awhile.




To assemble I placed three Mr. Tortilla tortillas on the plate, topped them with Mexica cauliflower rice. I made the rice with this recipe.















Next add the shrimp, pico de gallo, cotija or queso fresco Mexican cheese and here’s the great keto spicy cilantro garlic sauce by



I keep this made up in the fridge and it is good on so many things, like scrambled eggs!


To sum up this keto breading experiment, I am glad I tried it. I think it has a lot of promise and further experimentation will definitely be happing. I’m thinking a tempura batter to fry the shrimp in next time!


Also the question of how did this Fox Hill Kitchens breading compare to the typical keto breading with egg and pork panko?


Without a side by side taste test it’s very hard to say. I’m actually thinking the two methods are neck and neck. So change things up and try this brand new keto breading on all kinds of protein and veggies!



Enjoy! 🌮
