- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Gluten-free breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon Salt

- 2 cups Vegetable oil, for frying

- 0.333 cup Sweet chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce

Instructions
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, Sriracha sauce, and lime juice to make the bang bang sauce. Set aside.
In another bowl, beat the eggs and set aside.
In a shallow dish, combine the cornstarch, salt, and garlic powder.
Coat each shrimp in the cornstarch mixture, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the gluten-free breadcrumbs. Shake off any excess.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. The oil should be about 350°F (175°C) for frying.
Fry the shrimp in batches, avoiding overcrowding the skillet, until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Use a slotted spoon to remove shrimp from the oil and drain on paper towels.
Transfer the cooked shrimp to a large mixing bowl and drizzle with the prepared bang bang sauce. Toss gently to coat the shrimp evenly.
Serve the bang bang shrimp garnished with chopped green onions. Enjoy as an appetizer or a tasty snack.
