Crispy Honey Pineapple Orange Shrimp

Crispy Honey Pineapple Orange Shrimp


1. 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.

2. 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).

3. Heat the frying oil skillet 1/2 inch full to med-med/high (can use more if you prefer).

4. Coat all shrimp in cornstarch or a sesame oil/toasted sesame oil mixture.

5. Add the coated shrimp to the large bowl of batter and coat well with batter.

6. 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.

7. Warm a skillet 1/4 inch full of sesame oil to medium.

8. 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.

9. ***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.
