About

Our local restaurant makes this amazing shrimp appetizer that my husband and I just love. You might have heard of it. It’s called Bang Bang Shrimp. The shrimp is breaded, deep fried, and served with a spicy sauce. Yum!

The problem is deep fried isn’t on my list of ways to cook healthy shrimp, so I decided to simply adjust a few ingredients, then bake my shrimp instead of deep frying them.

Typically, I would use my own bread crumbs, but in this case, you really need that crunchy texture that bread crumbs just can’t provide. Panko is the way to go.

Add this easy, spicy dipping sauce and you have a shrimp dish to die for!

Happy cooking!
