So what is Bang Bang Sauce?
The Sauce is a sauce that coats shrimp appetizers, it tastes sweet and savory. It is made from mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha (or your favorite hot sauce), and adds a little honey.

To make Keto friendly sauce, you can omit the honey, use keto friendly mayo and use garlic chili sauce as a substitute for sweet chili sauce.
This is a simple sauce but the taste is very strong, you can pour it over shrimp, lobster, chicken, or just to dip vegetables like carrots. This chili sauce is so delicious and so versatile that it’s hard to find a food that can’t compare to it.
When making Bang Bang Sauce, make sure you taste it as you go. If you like it sweeter, then add more honey. Remember, this is your cooking and you can make it according to your own tastes.
Remember, and this is an important tip, if necessary you can note it down. If you find your chili sauce is too spicy, then you don’t need to add more honey, but just add lemon juice. This is a unique technique and really works. Adding lemon will trick the brain into making something spicy that isn’t spicy.
