Ingredients

  • For the Shrimp:
  • • 1 lbs. large shrimp peeled and deveined
  • • 1 cup cornstarch
  • • Vegetable oil for frying
  • • Salt and pepper to taste
  • For the Bang Bang Sauce:
  • • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • • 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
  • • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • • 1 teaspoon sriracha sauce adjust for spice level
  • • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • For Garnish:
  • • Sliced green onions
  • • Diced tomatoes

Instructions

  • • Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
    • Season the shrimp with salt and pepper.
    • Dredge the shrimp in the cornstarch, making sure they're evenly coated.
    • Fry the coated shrimp in batches until they are golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Place the fried shrimp on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
    • While the shrimp is cooking, dice your tomatoes and slice your green onions.
    • Prepare the Bang Bang Sauce. In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, rice vinegar, sriracha sauce, and sugar. Taste and adjust the spice level with more sriracha if needed. Set the sauce aside.
    • In a large bowl, drizzle the crispy shrimp with the prepared Bang Bang Sauce. Toss the shrimp to coat them evenly with the sauce.
    • Garnish the Bang Bang Shrimp with chopped green onions and tomatoes.
    • Serve your homemade Bang Bang Shrimp as an appetizer or over a bed of white rice or fresh lettuce.
