Simple, scrumptious, satisfying and wanting oh just one more, sums up my experience with these special little fried shrimp sliders.
I used fresh deveined black tiger shrimp then simply removed each peel and tail. After 7 short pulses in the food processor, the coarsely chopped shrimp mixture easily formed into 8 equal patties, which ultimately fit perfectly in a slider bun.
First bite yielded a brief moment of unplanned silence followed by an audible groan! Wow, a plump, juicy, shrimpy tasting slider with a wonderful Asian flavor from the ginger, garlic, scallions and red bell pepper along with heat, sweetness/acidity, and crunch from the slaw. The Hawaiian bun just gilded the lily with its slightly sweet taste and fluffy texture.
I served these 8 sliders to company as appetizers (2 per person) but would not hesitate to make them into 4 actual full-sized burgers.
