Dynamite Shrimp

The Dynamite Shrimp recipe blends crispy baked shrimp coated in panko breadcrumbs with a rich, spicy Asian chili mayo sauce. Served alongside a crisp slaw made with broccoli slaw, cabbage, sesame oil, and a touch of pure maple syrup, this dish combines crunchy textures and a balance of spicy, tangy, and slightly sweet flavors. Baking the shrimp provides a golden crust without frying, making it a flavorful option for pairing with steamed rice and fresh herbs like cilantro and green onion.

Description

Dynamite Shrimp features large shrimp marinated briefly in soy sauce and rice vinegar, then coated in panko breadcrumbs and baked until golden brown. The baked shrimp are tossed in a warm sauce made from Asian chili sauce, mayonnaise, soy sauce, and sriracha, adding a creamy yet spicy coating. The dish is complemented by an Asian slaw combining broccoli slaw, finely shredded cabbage, sesame oil, mayonnaise, pure maple syrup or honey, rice vinegar, and fresh herbs for brightness and texture.

The overall flavor balances savory, spicy, and lightly sweet elements with a satisfying contrast between the crispy shrimp exterior and tender shrimp inside. Serving this over steamed white rice with additional sauce and garnishes like diced green onions and cilantro creates a complete meal with varied textures and fresh notes.

For best results, use pure maple syrup rather than imitation syrup in the slaw for an authentic sweetness. Shrimp tails can be left on for presentation or removed for easier eating. When using frozen shrimp, thaw and pat dry before marinating and coating for best texture and adherence.
