How to Make Bang Bang Shrimp Copycat From Bonefish Grill
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce, 2 tablespoons sriracha (or more, to taste), 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, and 1 teaspoon soy sauce.
- In a separate shallow dish, place 1 cup cornstarch.
- Gently toss 1 pound of peeled and deveined shrimp in the cornstarch until evenly coated.
- Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the shrimp and fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove shrimp with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- While still warm, add the fried shrimp to the bowl with the mayonnaise mixture and toss gently to coat.
- Serve immediately in a bed of crisp lettuce leaves. Garnish generously with chopped green onions.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
