Bonefish Grill Bang Bang Shrimp
Description
This recipe marinates peeled and deveined shrimp in buttermilk, which helps the coating stick and adds slight tanginess. After draining, the shrimp are dredged in cornstarch, which fries to a light, crisp crust without heaviness. The shrimp are fried at 375°F until golden but still tender inside, typically 1-2 minutes per side.
The finished shrimp are tossed in a sauce that mixes mayonnaise with Thai sweet chili sauce and a splash of Sriracha for gentle heat and sweetness. This coating creates a creamy, flavorful finish that complements the crisp exterior of the shrimp.
Serving the shrimp immediately ensures they retain maximum crunchiness. The dish offers a blend of textures and a balance of spicy and sweet flavors, making it suitable as a shareable appetizer or a flavorful addition to a meal.
