Time 28m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 lb. medium shrimp (peeled and deveined (or 1 Lb. chicken cut into pieces))
1/2 c. mayonnaise
4 tsp Sriracha sauce
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp rice vinegar
1 egg (beaten)
1 c. milk
1/2 c. flour
1/2 c. panko breadcrumbs
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
1/4 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. dried basil
8 to 12 cups vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients for the spicy sauce in a small bowl; cover and set aside.
  • Combine beaten egg with milk in shallow bowl; set aside.
  • Combine flour, panko, salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and basil in another shallow bowl; set aside.
  • Bread the shrimp by first coating each with the breading mixture. Dip breaded shrimp into the egg and milk mixture, and then back into the breading. Arrange the coated shrimp on a plate and pop them into the fridge for at least 20 minutes. This step will help the breading to stick on the shrimp when they are frying.
  • Heat oil in deep fryer to 350 degrees (**see below for alternate cooking method). Use amount of oil required by your fryer.
  • When oil is hot, fry shrimp 2 to 3 minutes or until golden brown. Drain on rack or paper towels.
  • When all shrimp has been fried, drop the shrimp into a large bowl. Spoon about 1/4 cup of sauce over shrimp and stir gently to coat.
  • **If you don't have a deep fryer or want to make it a little lighter... preheat oven to 350-degrees. Heat about 1/4 - 1/2 c. oil in a skillet or frying pan to 350-degrees and fry shrimp (or chicken) on each side for a minute or two until coating is golden brown. Place on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes if doing shrimp and about 20 min. if doing chicken. Check for doneness (you want your shrimp to be pink and your chicken to be white all the way through).

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh shrimp that are deveined and peeled.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Be sure to coat the shrimp in the buttermilk mixture for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Use a light hand when dredging the shrimp in the flour mixture, as too much flour will make the coating too thick and heavy.
  • Fry the shrimp in batches in hot oil until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per batch.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately with the bang bang sauce.

Conclusion:

This copycat recipe for Bonefish Grill's Bang Bang Shrimp is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course.
