I don't really like spicy food all that much, but one year at my husband's company Christmas party, I tried Bang Bang Shrimp and LOVED it. It was the sauce, really, as I'm not crazy about shrimp. I make this and put it on chicken nuggets, omelettes, fries...really, just about anything battered and deep fried could benefit from this tasty sauce. From "Bang Bang Shrimp Throwdown" on thenoshery.com, I am forever grateful for your recipe!

Time 5m

Yield 35 tsp, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Thai sweet chili sauce
1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
2 teaspoons rice vinegar

Steps:

  • Whisk together until well combined. I use a pint sized mason jar to mix and store.

Tips:

  • Use fresh and high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the taste of your sauce. Use fresh, ripe cucumbers, garlic, and ginger, and choose a high-quality mayonnaise.
  • Adjust the spice level to your liking: If you like spicy food, you can add more Sriracha sauce or red pepper flakes to the recipe. If you prefer a milder sauce, you can reduce the amount of these ingredients or omit them altogether.
  • Make sure the sauce is well-chilled before serving: The sauce will thicken as it chills, so make sure to give it plenty of time to cool in the refrigerator before serving. This will help the flavors to meld together and develop.
  • Use the sauce as a condiment or marinade: Bang bang sauce can be used as a condiment for chicken, fish, or shrimp. It can also be used as a marinade for grilled or roasted meats. The sauce is also great as a dipping sauce for vegetables or spring rolls.

Conclusion:

Bang bang sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used in a variety of ways. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you are using it as a condiment, marinade, or dipping sauce, bang bang sauce is sure to add a flavorful kick to your meals.
