Ingredients

2 large egg whites

1/4 cup cornstarch

1/4 cup sesame seeds

Coarse salt and ground pepper

1.5 pounds medium shrimp, peeled and deveined

1/4 cup vegetable oil, plus more if needed

1 cup fresh orange juice

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon sugar

4 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced

Directions

In a large bowl, whisk together egg whites, cornstarch, sesame seeds, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper until frothy. Add shrimp, and toss to coat.

Heat 1/4 cup oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in two or three batches, cook shrimp until golden and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Add more oil to skillet if necessary for remaining batches.

Wipe skillet with a paper towel. Add orange juice, soy sauce, and sugar. Boil over high heat until syrupy and reduced to about 1/3 cup, 4 to 5 minutes.

Return shrimp to skillet; add scallions, and cook until heated through and coated with sauce, about 1 minute.

I made this today and I'm sorry to say it was a bit disappointing. The sauce wasn't "orangey" enough. Maybe using Sesame Oil (instead of Vegetable Oil) and adding some orange zest would give a better flavor. It was definitely fast and easy and I served it over rice. Thanks for sharing this recipe.
