Ingredients
Steps
- 1
Pat shrimp dry. Dredge in flour, then egg, then panko.
- 2
Spray all sides with cooking spray.
- 3
Air fry at 400°F for 8-10 minutes, shaking halfway, until golden and crispy.
- 4
Mix mayo, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, and honey for the bang bang sauce.
- 5
Toss crispy shrimp in sauce. Garnish with green onions and serve immediately.
Tip: Toss with sauce RIGHT before serving — the panko goes soggy fast. Serve extra sauce on the side for dipping. Adjust sriracha to your heat preference. These make incredible appetizers or lettuce wrap fillings.
