Bang Bang Chicken

Bang Bang Chicken has a crunchy, crispy exterior and is drizzled with a wonderful Bang Bang sauce made from mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and Sriracha sauce. The spicy-sweet sauce is irresistible.

This Bang Bang Chicken is similar to Bonefish Grill’s Bang Bang Shrimp which is one of my favorite appetizers ever.

Crispy Coating and Easy Sauce

Bite-sized pieces of chicken are coated in batter, pressed into Panko crumbs for a super crispy coating, and fried until golden. The simple sauce is only 3 ingredients. If you want it a little sweeter, add some sugar. If you want it spicier, add some more Sriracha sauce. Drizzle a little or a lot on the chicken. I definitely recommend serving the chicken with extra sauce for dipping.

Since the chicken is cut into bite-sized pieces, it fries up in just a few minutes. I recommend frying in vegetable oil, but you could use Canola oil or peanut oil instead.

The cornstarch in the batter and the Panko crumbs create a super crispy but light and crunchy coating for the chicken.

How To Serve

This Bang Bang Chicken is a great appetizer and works well as a weeknight meal. It tastes great wrapped in lettuce and is a little lighter and healthier served that way.
