Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Shrimp
Start by cleaning and deveining the shrimp. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Make the Bang Bang Sauce
In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of mayonnaise, 1 cup of sweet chili sauce, 2 tablespoons of sriracha sauce, and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. Mix well until smooth.
Season the Shrimp
In a separate bowl, season the shrimp with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Coat the Shrimp
Dredge the seasoned shrimp in 1 cup of cornstarch until well coated.
Heat the Oil
In a large frying pan, heat 2 cups of vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.
Fry the Shrimp
Carefully add the coated shrimp to the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the shrimp to a paper towel-lined plate.
Combine with Sauce
In a large bowl, toss the fried shrimp with the prepared Bang Bang sauce until evenly coated.
Serve
Serve the Bang Bang shrimp on a bed of lettuce leaves and garnish with chopped green onions. Enjoy!
