One of my favorite parts about dining out is taking those flavors back to my kitchen. And one of my favorite things to do is to order a bunch of appetizers or small plates and share them among the table.
My friends and I love to try new things, but if there is some version of this dish on the menu, I guarantee it'll end up right in front of me! Lightly-fried shrimp, sweet and spicy mayo, and cold, crisp lettuce? What's not to love?!
It doesn't take many ingredients to replicate this popular app and it will surely spice up your supper!
