📝 Preparation Steps
1
Place the shrimp in a gallon-sized plastic bag. Add the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and cornstarch to the bag. Close the bag and shake it so the shrimp are coated in the cornstarch and seasonings. Set aside.

In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sweetened condensed milk, honey, and lemon juice until smooth. Set aside.

Add about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil to a large skillet with deep sides over medium-high heat until it reaches 350 degrees F and shimmering. (The oil should sizzle immediately if you sprinkle water into it.)

In batches, not touching, fry the shrimp for ⏱️ 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink, are curled, with a lightly golden exterior (regulating the heat if the oil gets too hot.) Remove with a slotted spoon and drain them on a paper-towel-lined plate while you fry the remaining shrimp.
5
Add the shrimp and walnuts to a large bowl, pour the sauce on top. Toss everything together until combined.
6
Serve immediately with a sprinkle of scallions.
