8–10 rice paper sheets, cut into quarters

2 tbsp chili crisp or sambal oelek
2 cloves garlic, minced
1-inch piece ginger, minced

Instructions
1. Start by making quick pickles: mix sliced veggies with rice vinegar, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
2. Heat oil in a deep skillet. Fry rice paper pieces one at a time for 2–3 seconds until puffed. Drain on paper towels.
3. Season shrimp lightly with salt. Sear in hot pan 1–2 minutes per side until pink.
4. Add garlic, ginger, chili crisp, soy sauce, and honey. Toss shrimp in sauce and cook until sticky.
5. Build chips: Top each rice puff with shrimp, pickles, spicy mayo, scallions, and sesame seeds.
6. Serve immediately for max crunch.
Notes
Use tamari for a gluten-free version.
Sub tofu or crispy mushrooms for a plant-based twist.
Fry rice paper just before serving—it goes stale quickly.
Prep all toppings ahead and assemble to order for parties.
