Instructions
Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. Season with salt and pepper, then set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, orange juice, lime juice, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and chili flakes to create the glaze. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, add the shrimp in a single layer. Cook for 2 minutes on one side until they start turning pink and slightly opaque.
Flip the shrimp and pour the prepared glaze over them. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are fully cooked and coated in the glaze.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the shrimp with sliced scallions, chopped cilantro, and toasted sesame seeds.
Serve the Fusion Shrimp immediately as an appetizer or over steamed rice, noodles, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
