1 cup cornstarch

1
Stir preserves, vinegar, cilantro, chili flakes, and 1 tablespoon water in a bowl until combined; set aside.

Pat shrimp dry with paper towels. Stir cornstarch and baking soda in a small bowl. Place eggs in a deep sided bowl or large mug. Place Rice Chex(R) cereal, coconut, and 2 3/4 teaspoons salt (see note) in a large shallow dish.
