Ingredients 

Shrimp:

  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

For the Bang Bang Sauce:

  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste

For Garnish:

  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, optional

Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine the shrimp with buttermilk, making sure all the shrimp are coated. Let them marinate for about 15 minutes to tenderize.
  • In another bowl, mix the flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  • Drain the marinated shrimp and pat them dry with paper towels.
  • Dip each shrimp into the flour mixture, coating them thoroughly and shaking off any excess.
  • Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for a few minutes.
  • Arrange the coated shrimp in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they don't overlap.
  • Air fry the shrimp in batches for 6-8 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time for even browning. The shrimp should be crispy and golden brown.
  • While the shrimp are cooking, prepare the Bang Bang Sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha sauce, honey, rice vinegar, garlic powder, and salt until well combined.
  • Once the shrimp are done, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Add the Bang Bang Sauce and toss the shrimp until they are evenly coated.
  • Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds (if using).
  • Serve the Air Fryer Copycat Bonefish Grill Bang Bang Shrimp immediately while they are hot and crispy.
