Sesame Seed Crusted Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk egg yolk with 1 tablespoon water, and set aside. In another small bowl, combine sesame seeds, flour, salt, pepper, and five-spice powder. Dip shrimp in the egg mixture then in the sesame-seed mixture to coat.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shrimp; saute until cooked through and sesame-seed crust is golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Serve shrimp on a bed of sesame noodles.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, bring salted water to a boil. Add rice, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
• While rice is simmering, combine shrimp, ginger, cayenne pepper, garlic, sesame seeds and black pepper in a large plastic food storage bag. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator.
• Heat sesame oil in a large wok or skillet. Add red bell pepper and green onions; saute 3 to 4 minutes to soften slightly Add teriyaki sauce. Add peas and shrimp with seasoning; saute 4 minutes or until shrimp are opaque.
• Stir cornstarch into chicken broth and add to wok; cook, stirring until mixture boils. Sprinkle with salt. Spoon shrimp mixture over rice.

Steps:

• In a resealable plastic bag, combine the soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, lemon juice, garlic powder and lemon-pepper; add shrimp. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 30 minutes., Drain and discard marinade. In a skillet, saute shrimp in remaining sesame oil until shrimp turn pink, about 3 minutes. Serve with rice if desired. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Toss the shrimp with the vegetable oil, salt, and pepper. Dip one side of each shrimp in the toasted sesame seeds. Skewer with a toothpick. I actually threaded several on a metal skewer and dipped one side of that group of shrimp in the toasted sesame seeds at the same time. Much easier and you don't lose seeds while threading since you're doing that part last.
• When the oven is heated, place the skewered shrimp (sesame seeds on top) on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake 6 to 10 minutes (depending on your oven), until the shrimp are firm to the touch.
• For the dipping sauce, put the remaining ingredients into bowl and mix until blended. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with the warm shrimp.

Steps:

• In a small skillet over medium heat, toast the sesame seeds until fragrant. In a shallow dish, combine 2 tablespoons of the sesame seeds with the sesame oil, vinegar, and soy sauce. Thread 3 shrimp onto each skewer, piercing each at the head and tail, and place in the marinade. Turn to coat and set aside for 10 minutes.
• Spread the remaining 2 tablespoons of sesame seeds on a plate. Transfer the skewers to the plate and coat with the sesame seeds. Heat the skillet over medium-high heat and sear the skewered shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until opaque. Pour the remaining marinade over the shrimp and cook until the marinade thickens.
• Place the skewers on a plate and pour the marinade over. Serve warm or at room temperature.
