Ingredients
  

For the Marinade
  • 1 pound shrimp thawed, peeled
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 3 cloves minced garlic fresh
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper freshly cracked
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
For the Vegetables
  • 2 cups bok choy halved or quartered
  • 2 stalks green onions for garnish
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds for garnish
For the Rice
  • 1 1/2 cups jasmine rice rinsed before cooking

Equipment

  • medium saucepan
  • large mixing bowl
  • parchment paper
  • Sheet Pan

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Rinse jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine rinsed rice with water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Let it sit off heat for 5 minutes.
  2. Prep the bok choy by halving or quartering them. Set aside.
  3. In a bowl, combine shrimp with honey, minced garlic, black pepper, soy sauce, sesame oil, and olive oil. Let the shrimp marinate for at least 10 minutes.
  4. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  5. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper. Spread bok choy cut-side down on one side and arrange marinated shrimp in a single layer on the other side.
  6. Roast in the oven for about 8-10 minutes until shrimp is pink and opaque, and bok choy has charred edges. Flip bok choy halfway through roasting.
  7. Remove from oven, let cool slightly, and serve on a platter or directly from the pan. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds. Spoon pan juices over rice.
