Crispy Orange Shrimp

One of my favorite 30-minute weekday recipes. The sauce is so flavorful and bright thanks to the main ingredient Florida’s Natural® Orange Juice. You've seen me use it in numerous sweet baking recipes, but we're trying it out in a savory dinner. The sauce with the crispy shrimp makes this a satisfying, crowd-pleasing dish. Try it out, and let me know what you think!

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk sauce ingredients of garlic, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, Florida's Natural® No-Pulp Orange Juice, and red pepper flakes. Set aside.   
  2. Using a paper towel, dry your shrimp off and thoroughly coat in cornstarch. 
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium heat with oil. Place coated shrimp in the pan and cook until crispy, about 2 minutes per side. Cook in batches, so you don't overcrowd the pan. Remove shrimp and set aside. 
  4. Don't wipe out the pan! Add your citrus honey sauce mixture using the same pan on medium heat. Cook for 2 minutes, and add your shrimp back in. Toss everything together and continue cooking for 2 more minutes or until the sauce begins to thicken. 
  5. Serve with rice, veggies, or by itself. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onion. Enjoy!
