Lightened Up Bang Bang Shrimp

Lightened Up Bang Bang Shrimp

This dish provides the flavor and heat from bang bang shrimp without the calories from fried or breaded shrimp.  I served this over spaghetti squash to soak up the sauce, but this also tastes great over a salad.  Feel free to up the sriracha and Thai chili sauce if you like spice.
