Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

cooking spray
3/4 c coconut water
3/4 c jasmati rice (or other long grain rice)
zest of 1 lime (use a vegetable peeler to make large strips that will be removed later), plus wedges for serving
1/2 c shredded carrots
2 Tbsp finely chopped red onion or scallions
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 large egg
1 c sweetened coconut, shredded
3/4 c panko bread crumbs
2 Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and set a wire rack on top; coat with cooking spray.
  • 2. Combine 1 cup water, the coconut water, rice and lime zest in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low; cover and simmer 8 minutes. Remove from heat; add the carrots, red onion (or scallions), 1/4 tsp. salt and a few grinds of pepper (do not stir). Cover and let sit 10 minutes, then fluff with a fork to combine. Discard the lime zest.
  • 3. Meanwhile season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Beat the egg and 2 tbsp. water in a bowl. Combine the coconut and panko in another bowl. Dip the shrimp in the egg mixture, then the coconut/panko mixture, gently pressing to adhere. Transfer to the prepared rack and bake until the shrimp are cooked through, about 10 minutes.
  • 4. Turn on the broiler and broil the shrimp until golden brown, 1-2 minutes. Add the cilantro to the rice mixture and toss. Serve with shrimp and lime wedges.

This baked coconut shrimp with tropical rice was a hit! The shrimp were perfectly cooked, with a crispy coconut coating and a tender, juicy interior. The rice was also delicious, with a slightly sweet and tangy flavor.
