Directions:
In a large bowl, whisk together egg whites, cornstarch, sesame seeds, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp pepper until frothy. Add shrimp, and toss to coat.

Heat 1/4 cup oil in large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in two or three batches, cook shrimp until golden and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Add more oil to skillet if necessary for remaining batches.

Empty oil when done and wipe skillet with paper towel. Add orange juice, soy sauce, and sugar. Cook to high heat heat until syrupy and reduce to about 1/3 cup (approx 3-5 minutes). Return shrimp to skillet and cook until heated and coated with sauce (approx 1 minute). Garnish with scallions.
