    Ingredients

    A wooden board with bowls of sweet chili sauce, mayo, and sriracha.
    • Mayonnaise - Bang bang sauce is similar to an aioli; so we're going to use mayo as the base of our recipe. You can use whatever kind you prefer - regular, olive-oil mayo, or even vegan. 
    • Sweet Chili Sauce - The hint of sweetness comes from Thai sweet chili sauce! I normally find a jar in the Asian or International aisle of the grocery store. 
    • Sriracha - To balance everything together, a hint of sriracha provides the perfect amount of heat.

    What Can I Serve This Sauce With?

    This sauce is incredibly tasty, and pairs well with all sorts of dishes!

    Of course, my Grilled Bang Bang Shrimp Bowls use a batch of the tangy sauce.

    You could also drizzle on top of roasted veggies: think crispy asparagus or edamame.

    Or add a nice spoonful on top of Cauli-Fried Rice, Crispy Air Fried Tofu Bowls, or Sushi Bake with Crab. Yum!
