The Panda Express Sizzling Shrimp is the latest addition to the brand's menu that's arriving just in time for Lent season as an alternative protein option to enjoy. The dish features large, juicy shrimp that have been paired with freshly cut veggies, ginger and garlic before being tossed in a wok with a tangy sauce. The dish is the perfect option for patrons who observe Lent to try out, but is also great for flexitarians or pescatarians.
The Panda Express Sizzling Shrimp is being launched with a special edition dish created by Lodge for patrons to pick up. Available for one day only (Thursday, March 9, 2023), the cast-iron wok is imprinted with the brand's name on the interior.
