Shrimp Preparation
- 1
Season the Shrimp
In a medium bowl, combine the large shrimp, salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Toss to coat the shrimp evenly with the spices.
- 2
Coat the Shrimp
Sprinkle cornstarch over the seasoned shrimp and toss until all shrimp are coated evenly. This will help create a crispy texture when fried.

Prepare the Boom Boom Sauce
In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha sauce, lime juice, and minced garlic until smooth. Adjust seasoning according to your taste.
Frying
- 4
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil by dropping in a small piece of bread; if it sizzles, it's ready.

Fry the Shrimp
Carefully add the coated shrimp to the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 2-3 minutes or until the shrimp are golden brown and cooked through. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Serve
Serve the crispy shrimp hot with the Boom Boom sauce on the side for dipping.
