Panda Express puts a new spin on the popular surf-and-turf combo with the introduction of Crispy Sesame Shrimp & Beef at participating locations starting October 8, 2025.
Featuring a bold blend of American and Chinese flavors, Crispy Sesame Shrimp & Beef pairs tempura-battered shrimp and crispy beef strips with fresh vegetables, all tossed in a mildly spicy, umami-rich sauce inspired by the Sichuan classic Mouthwatering Chicken.
More specifically, the dish combines familiar elements from Honey Walnut Shrimp and Beijing Beef into a single order, using battered shrimp and beef, then finishes them with a straightforward, savory seasoning and a mix of textures in one bowl.
Prices may vary, but the new entrée starts at $10 at my nearest Panda Express. It’s also available as a Plate for $13.10 or a Bigger Plate for $16.20.
