Step 1
Pat shrimp dry. Toss with minced garlic, salt, and pepper until coated.
Step 2
Lay one phyllo sheet on a cutting board. Cut into 4 equal squares. Wrap one shrimp in each square, tucking edges underneath to seal. Repeat with remaining phyllo and shrimp.
Step 3
Heat oil in a heavy skillet to 350°F, or until a phyllo scrap sizzles immediately when dropped in, ~3 minutes.
Step 4
Fry wrapped shrimp in batches, 90 seconds per side, until phyllo is golden and crispy. Do not crowd the pan.
Step 5
Drain on paper towels. Serve hot with sweet chili sauce on the side, cilantro, and lime wedges.
