Air Fryer Shrimp a la Bang Bang

by

Description

This is my take on a popular dish from a restaurant chain. My version is made in an air fryer instead of being deep-fried. The end result was perfectly crispy sweet and spicy shrimp.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1 pound raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 head loose leaf lettuce
  • 2 green onions, chopped, or to taste (Optional)

Instructions

  1. Set an air fryer for 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. Mix mayonnaise
  3. chili sauce
  4. and sriracha sauce in a bowl until smooth. Reserve some bang bang sauce in a separate bowl for dipping
  5. if desired.
  6. Place flour on a plate. Place panko on a separate plate.
  7. Coat shrimp first with flour
  8. followed by mayonnaise mixture
  9. then panko. Place coated shrimp on a baking sheet.
  10. Place shrimp in the air fryer basket without overcrowding.
  11. Cook for 12 minutes. Repeat with remaining shrimp.
  12. Serve in lettuce wraps garnished with green onions.
