Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs Shrimp
  • 1 tablespoon ghee

Bang Bang Sauce

  • 1 tablespoon Avocado Mayo I like Chosen Foods
  • 1 teaspoon Coconut aminos
  • 1 tablespoon Sweet chili sauce I like Yai Thai
  • 1 tablespoon Sriracha I like Yellow Bird
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • Salt
  • Pepper

Instructions
 

  • 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 from the ones mentioned to double check ingredients.
  • If you want the sauce to be spicier, add extra sriracha to the bang bang sauce.
