Best Crispy Honey Pineapple Orange Shrimp Recipes

HONEY ORANGE FIRECRACKER SHRIMP

Steps:

• Wash shrimp well and submerge in cold water in a bowl; set shrimp aside.
• Place cornstarch, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper in a large plastic bowl with a tight-fitting lid, close the lid, and shake several times to mix. Place half the wet shrimp into the container, cover, and shake to coat shrimp with cornstarch mixture. Remove shrimp to a platter and repeat with remaining shrimp.
• Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat until the oil is hot and shimmering but not smoking. Tap excess cornstarch from the shrimp and pan-fry in batches until shrimp are opaque inside and brown and crisp outside, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain cooked shrimp on paper towels while you fry the remaining shrimp.
• Clean skillet and pour in honey; bring to a boil over medium heat and stir in orange zest, lemon juice, and cayenne pepper. Serve hot shrimp on a serving platter drizzled with honey sauce to taste.

CRISPY HONEY PINEAPPLE ORANGE SHRIMP

Steps:

• Sift the flour, salt, pepper, and cinnamon (optional) in a large bowl. Add water, milk, and egg and mix until a smooth batter. Set aside for 10-15 minutes.
• Now is the time to prepare ahead and get any side items ready to be plated quickly. Once you begin battering and frying the shrimp it becomes difficult to keep up. ( I cooked egg noodles "8 minutes" added soy sauce and stir-fried fresh veggies during this time to make a complete meal).
• Heat the frying oil skillet 1/2 inch full to med-med/high (can use more if you prefer).
• Coat all shrimp in cornstarch or a sesame oil/toasted sesame oil mixture.
• Add the coated shrimp to the large bowl of batter and coat well with batter.
• Carefully drop battered shrimp into oil. (Make sure oil is not too hot, shrimp should turn a light to medium gold when done, turn every couple of minutes). Remove all shrimp onto tray covered with paper towels. Gently "dry" the shrimp. Keep warm.
• Warm a skillet 1/4 inch full of sesame oil to medium.
• Once oil is warm, add honey and pineapple orange juice while mixing constantly. Add the dried shrimp to mixture, squeeze lemon over shrimp, and sprinkle in sesame seeds. Mix & Toss well for a few minutes. Serve Immediately.
• ***Don't want to waste the left over batter and oil? Try frying some of your veggies with your shrimp. I cooked mushrooms both fried and crispy honey pineapple orange style with the left over batter.

STICKY CRISPY ORANGE SHRIMP

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.
