Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • ½ cup Thai sweet chili sauce
  • 1 teaspoon of rice wine vinegar

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Thai sweet chili sauce, sriracha, rice vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce.
  • In a shallow bowl, add buttermilk and set aside. Place cornstarch in a shallow dish and add seasoning salt. In a third bowl, add panko crumbs.
  • Season shrimp with garlic powder, onion powder, and seasoning blend. Coat shrimp in cornstarch first, then buttermilk and finally, in the panko crumbs.
