Bang Bang Shrimp

I made this for dinner a few nights ago. It's an easy recipe to put together, quick to cook, and delicious. The mayo and the chili sauce balance each other nicely, creating a creamy sauce with just a touch of heat. Adjust the red pepper flakes according to your own taste. It is good on regular spaghetti and on the whole grain noodles, as well. We have fresh basil under grow lights during the winter, and it was the perfect garnish for this dish, but parsley would be pretty. This recipe will serve 6 people. Enjoy!
Bang Bang Shrimp
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup Thai sweet chili sauce
2 cloves of garlic, minced
2 T lime juice
1/8-1/4 t. crushed red pepper flakes
1 T onion powder


1 lb spaghetti or other noodles. I used Soba noodles in the photo shown above.

1 lb shrimp or diced chicken breast
1 T olive oil
3 cloves of garlic, minced
3 T paprika
1 T fresh basil
Black pepper to taste

Mix sauce ingredients and set aside.

Cook pasta and drain.
Combine pasta and sauce and turn to coat well. 

Saute shrimp or chicken with garlic, paprika, and pepper until no longer pink. Serve shrimp on top of noodles. Garnish with fresh basil.

    Anita has a long background rooted in traditional handwork and quiltmaking, which she still enjoys.

    Often, these days, you'll find her digitizing patterns for the Statler Stitcher and other computerized longarm quilting machines. 
     
    Her summer days are spent in the garden and she loves finding new ways to prepare good veggie-based meals.


    She's always in search of a way to balance all of those activities and find time to share with others who are passionate about the same things.

    This page is a sneak peek into what's happening in her world right now.
