Boom Boom Sauce is a slightly spicy slightly sweet mayonnaise based chili sauce. This is one of my favorite dipping sauces! It is incredibly easy to prepare and it takes less than five minutes. Plus it can be prepared up to several days in advance, placed in airtight container and stored in the refrigerator.
It makes a great dipping sauce for so many things but I love to serve it with Beer Battered Onion Rings, Coconut Chicken, and Sweet Potato Fries. It is a fun sauce that my guests always rant and rave about.

I made this recipe for a seafood night. I opted to use hot chili paste instead of the siraucha sauce because my family loves spicy foods. This was a win win for the family and they requested more. I will make again. Thanks a bunch
