Loved this! This is a dish I love when ordering out and it was fun and simple to make at home.
Allowing the flavors to mix for a few hours is a golden tip, make sure not to skip that step.
My changes for personal preferences: I pan fried the shrimp because I never deep fry, added a touch of garlic salt to the corn starch for extra flavor and used just a little less mayo in the sauce. I love that you can change the hotness to taste and the whole recipe was very easy to make and was done in no time!

Bang Bang Shrimp is one of my favorite foods! I've made this recipe on many occasions, always deep frying it, and we never have any leftovers.. It's that good :)

Absolutely delicious. I also pan fried mine instead of deep frying and it worked really well. I also used light mayo and added some Southern Garlic Seasoning. Had this with a spinach salad for lunch. Thanks for sharing. Made for New Kids on the Block tag game.
