Fried shrimp coated with a classic bang bang sauce and dinner is served in 15 minutes! The bang bang sauce in this recipe is absolutely delicious! Once you make it, you will find yourself wanting to use it over and over again!
Bang Bang was one of my favorite dishes before I started Keto! I made a few adjustments to my previous recipe to make it Keto friendly and it is certainly not lacking that wonderful flavor! It’s easy to throw together and serve when you are pressed for time, and delivers a spicy kick!
