Delicious shrimp and crab corn dogs with a cheesy batter, golden-fried to perfection. Perfect as a seafood snack or party appetizer.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 cup crab meat, shredded
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup nacho cheese sauce
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • Wooden skewers

Instructions

  1. Chop shrimp and combine with crab meat and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix in the nacho cheese sauce.
  2. In a large bowl, mix cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, and paprika.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk and eggs. Combine with the dry ingredients to form a thick batter.
  4. Form seafood mixture onto skewers into log shapes and freeze for 10 minutes to firm.
  5. Dip skewers into batter, ensuring even coating.
  6. Heat oil in a deep fryer or skillet to 350°F (175°C). Fry corn dogs for 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown.
  7. Drain on paper towels and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Pat seafood dry before mixing to help batter stick.
  • Chill skewered seafood before dipping to prevent breakage in oil.
  • Use thick batter to ensure proper coating.
  • Fry in small batches to maintain oil temperature.
  • Try dipping sauces like spicy remoulade or Old Bay aioli for extra flavor.
