Potstickers with Spicy Kani Salad

Normally when we have potstickers (just the frozen pork ones) I just make a bunch and we munch on that. But I saw this recipe for spicy kani salad that I wanted to make, so I thought it would make a good side for it!

I did make a couple of changes to the salad "dressing", I added some garlic and a bit of chili crunch with a half of a squeezed lime. I also topped it with cilantro because we had some to use up. It's very good! I'd definitely make it again, but I'd make the mayo base before hand so it has some time to meld and be a bit less mayo-e. The store only had a bigger bag of imitation crab meat and a giant cucumber, so I have enough to make another batch this weekend.

Edit: so I made this again with a few changes and it's SO MUCH BETTER! I was almost out of mayo so I just used a little bit, and I subbed the rest with nonfat greek yogurt. I also added fresh squeeze tube ginger, some jarlic, and a bit of soy sauce. It's so much better without being full mayo, it's much more light & fresh tasting.

This is honestly one of the best things I've ever eaten. Literally incredible. The only change I made to the recipe was I added a spoonful of peanut butter and topped it with chili crisp. In fact it's so good that I'm going to the store tomorrow to get the ingredients to make it again. All I need is another lime and another bag of shrimp. There is leftover cilantro and green onions and I have ramen packs in the pantry already.

 Ethan loves it too. We never eat shrimp because Craig's allergic but he's out of town so that's when we make shrimp recipes since I love them.
