Equipment
Ingredients
- 14 oz shrimp frozen, "popcorn" size
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
- 2 tbsp sriracha
- 1 tbsp honey
Instructions
- Open up package of frozen shrimp and add the contents to an air fryer basket.
- Close up the air fryer and set temperature to 400 degrees for 8 minutes.
- Halfway through cooking time, pull out the basket and shake the shrimp to move them around so they cook more evenly. Replace basket and continue cooking until time is up.
- While shrimp are cooking, you can mix up the bang bang sauce. In a glass measuring cup, add 1/4 cup of mayo and 1/4 cup of sweet chili sauce. Using a measuring cup makes it easy to portion out the sauces. Then add sriracha and honey to the mixture. Stir everything up into a well-blended sauce.
- Once the shrimp are ready, empty the air fryer basket into a bowl.
- Pour the sauce on top and use a spoon to toss the shrimp in the sauce. Now it's ready to be enjoyed!
Notes
- No need to thaw the shrimp, the air fryer cooks them straight from frozen
- You can check if the shrimp is cook through by slicing one in half. If it's not ready, close up the air fryer and heat shrimp for a few more minutes
- This dish works as an appetizer or main dish. Add a side of rice or veggies for a complete meal.
