\ud83e\udd90 The combo nobody puts on the same skewer<\/h3>\n

I made this one up. No tradition behind it, no restaurant I’m copying. I like shrimp, I like halloumi, and I had no bang bang sauce anywhere on the site yet, so the three things collided on one skewer on a Saturday afternoon and never came apart. Grilled shrimp turn sweet and briny. Halloumi goes salty and deeply caramelized, and it holds its shape the whole time instead of running through the grate. The bang bang sauce ties them together with something creamy and hot. You eat one and you’re already reaching for the second.<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf36\ufe0f My bang bang sauce, pushed further than the standard one<\/h3>\n

The usual version is three things in a bowl: mayo, sweet chili sauce, sriracha. Mine adds fresh grated ginger, rice vinegar, soy sauce and a spoonful of sugar, which drags the whole thing east. Creamy, hot, bright, sweet and salty all at once. It also keeps. Make it the day before and the ginger and the soy have time to settle into each other, which is honestly when it’s at its best. You spoon it over the skewers the second they come off the heat, and you leave a bowl of it on the table, because someone is going to want more.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udd25 Eight minutes of grill, four people fed<\/h3>\n

Fifteen minutes of prep, eight minutes on the BBQ, and you’ve served a main course nobody at the table has eaten before. Serve it with my sugar snap pea salad<\/a>, my air fryer sweet potatoes<\/a>, or plain rice if you want somewhere for the extra sauce to land.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
