Preparation
Prepare & bake the shrimp
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Halve the lime; juice ½ and cut the remaining ½ into 4 wedges. Pat the shrimp dry with paper towel (remove the shells from the tails if desired). In a medium bowl, combine the shrimp*, curry paste (start with ½), lime juice, 1 tbsp oil (double for 4 portions), ⅔ of the spices and S&P. Add the coconut; toss well. Arrange on a lined sheet pan and bake, 8 to 10 min., until opaque and cooked through.
Sauté the cauliflower rice
Meanwhile, in a medium pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the cauliflower rice and sauté, 6 to 8 min., until softened; season with the remaining spices and S&P. Transfer to a bowl and reserve the pan.
Cook the bok choy
Remove the root ends of the bok choy; separate the leaves (halve crosswise if large). In the reserved pan, heat the sesame oil on medium-high. Add the bok choy and sauté, 2 to 3 min., until beginning to soften. Add 2 tbsp water (double for 4 portions) and cook, partially covered, 2 to 3 min., until tender; season with S&P.
Plate your dish
Divide the cauliflower rice and bok choy between your plates. Top with the shrimp. Garnish with the lime wedges. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking shellfish to a minimum internal temperature of 74°C.
