Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels, then generously salt and pepper both sides.Prepare three shallow bowls, 1 with flour, 1 with the egg, and 1 with the coconut. Dust each shrimp with the flour, then dip them dip them in the egg. This combination acts as the glue for the coconut, so make sure you don't miss any spots. Finally, lay the shrimp on the coconut and sprinkle some of the coconut on top, pressing on the shrimp to make sure it gets a nice thick coating. Lift the shrimp up by it's tail and give it a wiggle to shake off any excess coconut. Repeat with the rest of the shrimp
