Ingredients: ¾ lb large shrimp (16–20 count), peeled, deveined & chopped; 3 tbsp unsalted butter; 3 tbsp all-purpose flour; ¾ cup whole milk, warmed; ¼ cup dry white wine; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 tsp kosher salt; ¼ tsp white pepper; ¼ tsp cayenne; 2 tbsp fresh parsley, minced; 1 large egg + 1 tbsp water (egg wash); ¾ cup panko breadcrumbs; ¼ cup all-purpose flour (for dredging); Oil for frying (1.5 liters); 1 cup fresh basil leaves; ½ cup fresh cilantro; 2 tbsp fresh tarragon (or 1 tbsp dried); 1 clove garlic; ½ cup neutral oil; 2 tbsp lemon juice; ½ tsp kosher salt; ½ cup biquinho peppers (pickled), drained; ¼ cup sugar; 2 tbsp red wine vinegar; 1 tbsp water

Plump Brazilian shrimp folded into a silky béchamel, chilled, breaded, and fried until the exterior shatters into a fine, golden crust while the interior stays creamy and briny. A vibrant green goddess aioli (made with basil, cilantro, and tarragon) provides savory depth, while a quick sweet-spicy biquinho pepper jelly offers a surprising pop of fruit and heat. Restaurant-adjacent technique at home: the precision of the béchamel consistency and the double-bread method for maximum crunch.
