Healthy Bang Bang Shrimp

This recipe from Hayley Lucero (@realfoodwithaltitude) is a delicious spin on the famous appetizer. It's dairy-free, easy to make, Whole30 and Paleo compatible.

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 lbs Shrimp
  • 1 tbsp ghee

BANG BANG SAUCE

  • 1 tbsp Avocado Mayo
  • 1 tsp Coconut aminos
  • 1 tbsp Sweet chili sauce 
  • 1 tbsp Sriracha 
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • Salt
  • Pepper

DIRECTIONS

  • Heat a pan to medium-high heat and add ghee to melt in the pan.

  • Pat dry the shrimp and season them with salt and pepper.

  • Place shrimp in the pan and cook on one side for about 3 minutes. Flip the shrimp and cook on the other side for about 3 minutes.

  • Combine all the Bang Bang Sauce ingredients into a bowl and whisk together.

  • Pour Bang Bang Sauce over the shrimp and mix together. Reserve some for dipping, drizzling or however else you want to use the sauce. Serve and enjoy!

NOTES

  • Use any cooking method you like for the shrimp- pan, grill, air fryer.
  • I like serving this over coleslaw or other veggies, but they would go great in some tacos too!
  • This is a Whole30 compatible meal but be sure if you use various brands to double check ingredients.
  • If you want the sauce to be spicier, add extra sriracha to the bang bang sauce.
