    The inadequate management of waste has a significant environmental impact. The incorrect disposal of organic matter generates contamination, encourages the emission of gases, and generates unpleasant odors, as in the case of shrimp waste. The amount of bread waste represents a waste of valuable resources. It is essential to manage these wastes properly to mitigate their environmental impact and take advantage of their potential by reusing them or giving value to these materials. In the present study, a breading was developed using shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) and panko waste, for which the waste was selected through a visual evaluation of its odor, integrity and appearance characteristics. A convective drying, milling and sieving process was applied to obtain a homogeneous mixture that would allow adequate breading, which was adjusted according to sensory and technical-functional parameters such as oil absorption capacity and dough properties. In addition, the proximal composition of the most acceptable breading was determined. The results achieved demonstrate a crunchy texture and an enhancement of the flavor of the breaded food, characteristics that satisfy the consumer. The percentage yield obtained for shrimp shell flour was 29.0 percent and 68.9 percent for panko. The most acceptable formulation was the one obtained by treatment 3, which presented a low oil absorption index of 1.59, an intermediate texture between panko and breadcrumbs of 6386 gram-strength and a raw peak of 81 cP, which shows a viscosity like that of a gum. Regarding proximate composition and microbiological load, the product complied with INEN 2945 and NTE INEN 2532.
