- Finish with lemon juice, dill, cilantro, and an extra spoonful of chili crisp.
Notes
Mayo off the heat: Stir in the sriracha mayo after turning off the burner so it stays creamy and doesn't separate.
Spice level: Start with 1 tablespoon each of sriracha and chili crisp and add more to taste. Mr. Bing Chili Crisp comes in mild and spicy.
Gluten-free: Brami contains wheat; use gluten-free pasta and check your sausage and sauces.
Storage: Refrigerate up to 3 days. Delicious cold as a pasta salad.
