Finely chop the shrimp or pulse in a food processor until smooth.

In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped shrimp with breadcrumbs, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

Shape the mixture into balls the size of golf balls and set on a tray lined with parchment.

Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat until shimmering.

Fry each ball for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown.

Remove the shrimp balls and drain on paper towels. Serve warm.
