Spicy Shrimp Taco on Grilled Croissant Recipe!

Ingredients:
– 1 large croissant
– 6-8 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
– 1 green onion, thinly sliced
– 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
– 1/4 cup cornmeal
– 1/4 tsp paprika
– 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
– 1/4 tsp garlic powder
– Salt and pepper
– Vegetable oil for frying

Spicy Red Pepper Cream Sauce:
– 1/4 cup mayonnaise
– 1/4 cup sour cream
– 1 tsp hot sauce
– 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
– Salt and pepper
– 1 tbsp chopped roasted red pepper (store-bought or roasted at home)

Instructions:
1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Slice the croissant in half and grill it, cut side down, until crispy and lightly charred. Remove and set aside.
2. In a small bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Coat the shrimp in the flour mixture and shake off any excess.
3. In a small saucepan, heat enough vegetable oil over medium-high heat to fry the shrimp. When hot, add the shrimp and fry, flipping once, until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel to drain any excess grease.
4. To prepare the spicy red pepper cream sauce, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, hot sauce, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, and chopped roasted red pepper.
5. To assemble the tacos, spread a generous amount of the spicy red pepper cream sauce on the bottom of the grilled croissant. Top with the fried shrimp, sliced green onions, and crispy fried jalapenos
