This Keto Bang Bang Shrimp recipe offers crispy, spicy shrimp coated in a coconut flour batter with a flavorful bang bang sauce, perfect for a delicious low-carb appetizer or meal.
Mix shrimp, buttermilk, sriracha, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Let it marinate for approximately 20 minutes.
While the shrimp marinates, create the bang bang sauce by combining Japanese mayonnaise, chili-garlic sauce, sriracha, rice wine vinegar, and xylitol honey in a separate large bowl. Once mixed, set it aside.
Mix coconut flour, protein powder, baking powder, and salt for the batter in a spacious bowl. Gradually whisk in the egg and chilled sparkling water until you achieve a smooth consistency.
Heat about two inches of ghee over medium heat in a deep skillet.
Remove the shrimp from the marinade, and make sure to shake off any excess. Lightly coat them in coconut flour.
Coat each shrimp with the batter and fry in a single layer for 3-5 minutes until golden.
Once fried, remove the shrimp and toss them in the prepared bang bang sauce.
Serve on top of fresh lettuce leaves and sprinkle with the toasted black sesame seeds for garnish.
