Preparation

Step 1

Makes:
1. 4 servings

2. Preheat the broiler. In a medium ovenproof pan, toss the shrimp with 1 teaspoon each of the sesame oil and the honey. Add the cayenne.

3. Lay the shrimp flat. Broil for 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.

4. Heat a small nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the remaining teaspoon of sesame oil. Pour in the eggs. Cook undisturbed until set, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook until just set on the second side, 1 more minute. Transfer to a board and cut into strips.

5. In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce and rice wine vinegar with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon honey.

6. Fold the edamame and sesame seeds into the rice. Serve the rice in bowls topped with the egg strips, shrimp and avocado. Place the soy-vinegar mixture in a small bowl and use at the table for drizzling.
