That looks GREAT! I think.

Can you describe the taste of the Thai Sweet Chili Sauce? Does it taste like regular old chili sauce that you would use to make cocktail sauce? Sorta?

Me? Ummm I just surfed and found the recipe. I have no clue what the dish tastes like.

Thanks for the recipe. I am trying it this evening.

I've made this around 25 times in the past few months. Everyone just LOVES it! People can't ever get enough. It has the WOW factor! It's even good leftover - cold - should you be fortunate to have any left over.

The Thai sweet chili sauce is not like the chili sauce you find near the ketchup, etc. in the grocery store. It's sweet with a real nice kick to it! Don't try to substitute one for the other.

PBHEMP,

What did you think? I picked up the stuff to make the dish this week.

Please let us know, as Corinne has now made me want to try the dish. :) I am not a spicy eating person, but if it isn't too spicy? I could eat a little.

[Corinne]

I say it's not too spicy.

Go easy on the Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce if you are afraid of the heat. The mayo really mellows it out nicely. Taste the sauce before you toss it into the shrimp.

I made 5 pounds of Bang Bang Shrimp on Friday night for a church thing - it was the most popular item out of about a dozen things & no one complained about it being too spicy. The sausage & cream cheese stuffed Jalapenos, on the other hand... Them babies were especially hot & I don't know why.

I use 2 pounds of shrimp for the amount of sauce listed in the recipe above.

I have the latter and figure a few drops of that must be close enough.

Right?
