Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

- #103847
30-60 minutes
ingredients
1 cup corn flakes cereal
1/3 cup toasted slivered almonds
1/4 cup flaked coconut
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 large egg
1 tablespoon milk
1 1/2 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined (leave tails attached)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup Amaretto
directions
Place the corn flakes in a food processor and process until shredded. Add the almonds, coconut, salt, and cayenne. Pulse until the almonds are finely chopped. Transfer to a shallow dish.
Beat the egg and milk in a separate shallow dish. Coat the shrimp one at a time with the flour, shaking off the excess. Dip the shrimp into the egg mixture and then roll in the cereal mixture, pressing to coat.
Arrange on a large cooling rack placed in a jelly roll pan (The shrimp can be prepared up to this point 2 hours ahead of cooking). Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
Bring the Amaretto to a boil in a small saucepan. Boil, uncovered, until reduced to 1/4 cup.
Bake the shrimp for 10 minutes, or until cooked. Place on a serving plate and brush lightly with the Amaretto glaze.
