For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder to the cornstarch before dredging the shrimp. If you prefer a lighter sauce, you can substitute plain Greek yogurt for half of the mayonnaise. Bang Bang Shrimp is best served immediately. If you need to prepare it in advance, keep the fried shrimp separate from the sauce until just before serving to prevent them from becoming soggy.
