Serving: Best served immediately while the shrimp are crispy, but you can serve them with a side of ranch or blue cheese dressing for extra flavor.
Storage: Store any leftover shrimp in an airtight container for up to 2 days in the refrigerator. Reheat in the oven to help maintain the crispy texture.
Variations
Extra Spicy: Add more cayenne pepper to the hot honey sauce or drizzle some sriracha over the shrimp for an extra spicy kick.
Crispier Coating: For an even crispier shrimp, dip them in cornstarch before frying, or try a panko breading for extra crunch.
