Coconut Shrimp from Dean & Deluca

"I adopted this recipe in 9/06. I would give it 3 - 4 stars. I would have liked more coconut. I love panko, but next time I would increase the coconut and decrease the panko. I couldn't taste the cayenne at all, so I'd double it. I also thought 375 was a bit hot, lowered to 350 and had better luck. I used a plum sauce for dipping. Overall just okay. The following text is the original description of the recipe....... These tasty shrimp will set the tone for any serious eating endeavor. Crisp and easy to handle, they offer a snappy blend of spice and sweet coconut flavors. For ultimate enjoyment, serve them with a crisp, cool sparkling wine. Fruity Riesling, Viognier, or Sauvignon Blanc is also recommended.VARIATION: Spicy Dipping Sauce, To add a little more heat to these shrimp, serve a spicy dipping sauce alongside: Whisk 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper into 1 cup mayonnaise."
