Low-FODMAP Coconut Crusted Shrimp with Low-FODMAP Orange Sauce; Gluten-free, Dairy-free

Printer Friendly Version

Taste of the tropics!  Shrimp are my son Jack’s favorite food.  I was thrilled to make this low-FODMAP easy recipe for low-FODMAP coconut crusted shrimp!

These low-FODMAP coconut shrimp are crispy and tender and the low-FODMAP orange sauce is sweet and spicy.  They are a perfect combination for a fabulous appetizer or main course.  Low-FODMAP shrimp are a natural source of protein and healthy fats, and they mix well with any event!  These low-FODMAP coconut shrimp are easy, and the low-FODMAP orange sauce can also be used with other appetizers such as breaded chicken or spring rolls.
