    ★ Ingredients You'll Need ★

    This recipe comes together quickly but you do need a few special ingredients so be sure to check the list so you can purchase some of the things you might not already have on hand like maybe Hoisin sauce, sesame oil and ginger paste.

    Here's everything you'll need to build the complete bowl: raw shrimp (frozen or fresh), coleslaw mix (green and red cabbage and carrots), cooking oil, garlic paste, Hoisin sauce, ginger paste, sesame oil, green onions, salt, wonton strips, Sriracha sauce, Thai sweet chili sauce, and mayonnaise.

    This dish sounds a bit complex when you look at the ingredients but it's actually pretty simple. There are two sauces to really give this a bunch of flavor so most of the ingredients are to layer in the flavor — worth it!

    • Add Hoisin sauce, ginger paste, sesame oil and cooked shrimp.
    • Stir to combine.

    ★ Tips & FAQs ★

    What's in Bang Bang Shrimp Sauce?

    The simplicity and deliciousness of this iconic 3-ingredient sauce has always impressed me! Most sources say Bang Bang Shrimp originated as an appetizer available at Bonefish Grill.

    Bang Bang shrimp is probably what put that restaurant on the map honestly. It caught on like wildfire! The public cracked the code on the tasty sauce pretty quickly though and made it easy to make you own bang bang sauce at home.

    Here's what's in homemade bang bang sauce:

    • Sriracha Sauce
    • Thai Sweet Chili Sauce
    • Mayonnaise

    That's it. It's a sweet and spicy creamy sauce. Plain and simple but so not plain and simple tasting.

    What is an Egg Roll Bowl?

    An egg roll bowl essentially deconstructs the popular Americanized Chinese food menu item — the egg roll — in a bowl. Take everything you'd normally find inside an egg roll and put it in a bowl. Leave out the fried dough, add crispy won ton strips.

    Egg roll bowl quickly became popular because there are easy to make, don't require deep frying anything, are made with healthy ingredients and are yummy too!

    Personally, I liked the idea of using shrimp instead of pork or ground turkey which is what most recipes I saw were using. I also felt the egg roll bowl needed a sauce. Something spicy. Something amazing! Something everyone already knew and loved... the bang bang sauce. Also known as boom boom sauce, which you can buy ready-made to save time.

    One (large) pan is all you need.

    We are essentially stir frying here so a large skillet or a wok works best.

    Woks are cool because you can flip them instead of stirring and they have high sides so they aren't as messy.

    However I sometimes just use my dutch oven because I don't feel like getting out my wok. Lazy I know. If you're really wanting a wok you can get one fast from Amazon. Shop Woks now

    Storing extra Bang Bang sauce

    Make a large batch of sauce and use a sauce bottle to store and dispense. Tip: You may need to clip the top of the spout to widen it if your sauce has any chunks.

    Craving some substance?

    Don't leave out the wonton strips! The extra crunch is everything.

    You could also serve this over cooked rice or quinoa if you are craving some extra filler.

    Gathering the ingredients you need...

    There are a few oddball ingredients that you may not already have but don't worry you can find them at almost any grocery store.

    Or you can shop ingredients online at Amazon.

    Cook shrimp until it turns completely pink. Remove from heat immediately after to preserve texture. Overcooking shrimp may result in a rubbery texture.

      This recipe is simple and delicious. It will become a staple for me It's low carb and relatively low calorie if you don't put a ton of the mayo-based sauce on top.. I added more garlic, more ginger and will make the Bang Bang sauce hotter next time. I added most of the scallions at the end with the Hoisin sauce but left some raw for garnish. The recipe delish-ious. I especially love the crunchy won tons on top.
