Steps:
- For the sauce: Put the orange juice, ginger, honey, soy sauce, cornstarch, crushed red pepper, vinegar, sesame oil, salt and garlic in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat and whisk thoroughly to incorporate the cornstarch into the liquid. If you have a few lumps remaining, that is fine. Heat until bubbling and starting to thicken, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- For the crispy shrimp: Heat about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat to 350 degrees F.
- Add the flour, salt and pepper to a shallow dish. Crack the eggs into a second shallow dish and beat well. Place the panko in a third dish. Bread the shrimp by dipping them first in the flour mixture and shaking off any excess, then in the egg and finally in the breadcrumbs, pressing to make sure each shrimp has an even coating.
- Fry the shrimp in 2 batches, flipping halfway through, until golden, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
- Before serving, add the sauce to the bottom of a bowl. Add the shrimp and toss gently to coat. Serve over rice and garnish with the sliced scallions.

SESAME ORANGE SHRIMP
Using egg whites instead of whole eggs (or yolks) in the batter creates a crispier coating; cooking the shrimp in batches (so as not to crowd the pan) also helps. This versatile recipe is equally delicious when prepared with sliced chicken breast, pork loin, or steak.

Tips:
- Use fresh shrimp. Fresh shrimp has a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp. If you must use frozen shrimp, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or under cold running water for 30 minutes.
- Clean the shrimp properly. Rinse the shrimp under cold water and remove the heads, shells, and tails. If you are using deveined shrimp, remove the black vein that runs down the back of the shrimp.
- Marinate the shrimp. Marinating the shrimp in a mixture of orange juice, ginger, garlic, and soy sauce will help to flavor the shrimp and make it more tender.
- Cook the shrimp over high heat. This will help to sear the shrimp and lock in the flavor.
- Do not overcook the shrimp. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and chewy. Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until it is just cooked through.
- Serve the shrimp immediately. Shrimp is best served hot and fresh. You can serve it with rice, noodles, or vegetables.

Shrimp with orange and ginger is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal.
