2. Working one shrimp at a time, dip into the flour and coat, dip into the eggs, and then dredge the shrimp into the coconut mixture, pressing gently to adhere. Set the coated shrimp aside on a plate as you coat the remaining shrimp. Add enough oil to cover the bottom of a large skillet on medium heat. Fry the coconut shrimp in batches.
