Sesame-Orange Shrimp

These shrimp are super-easy to make — just coat them in a simple batter, cook them in a little oil, and toss with a tangy sesame-orange sauce. The staff at EatingWell simply could not get enough of these delicious shrimp while developing the recipe. Serve with brown basmati rice and steamed snow peas tossed with a little toasted sesame oil.




Ingredients





  • 3 tablespoon(s) sesame seeds (white, black, or a mix)
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1/4 cup(s) cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon(s) salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon(s) freshly ground pepper
  • 1 pound(s) (21-25 per pound) peeled and deveinned raw shrimp
  • 2 tablespoon(s) canola oil, divided
  • 3/4 cup(s) orange juice
  • 1/4 cup(s) dry sherry (see Tips & Techniques)
  • 2 tablespoon(s) reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon(s) sugar
  • 1 scallion, thinly sliced 

Directions
  1. Whisk sesame seeds, egg whites, cornstarch, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add shrimp and toss to coat.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add half the shrimp and cook until golden, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and the rest of the shrimp.
  3. Add orange juice, sherry, soy sauce, and sugar to the pan. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened and reduced by half, 4 to 6 minutes. Return the shrimp to the pan and stir to coat with the sauce. Serve immediately, with scallion sprinkled on top.

Tips & Techniques
Sherry is a type of fortified wine originally from southern Spain. Don't use the "cooking sherry" sold in many supermarkets — it can be surprisingly high in sodium. Instead, get dry sherry that's sold with other fortified wines at your wine or liquor store.
