INSTRUCTIONS

1 Mix vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar and 2 tablespoons of the sesame oil in large bowl until well blended. Add 3 tablespoons of the vinegar mixture into large resealable plastic bag. Stir Chinese five spice and garlic powder into bag. Add shrimp; turn to coat well. Refrigerate 15 to 30 minutes. (Marinate seafood no longer than 30 minutes.)
2 Meanwhile, add radishes, cucumbers, shallot and lime juice to remaining vinegar mixture in bowl. Let stand 15 minutes. Watermelon radishes have creamy white skin & striated pink flesh, with slightly peppery & sweet-almond notes. They can be found at farmer’s markets, organic food stores & online specialty stores. Substitute with regular radishes if unable to find.
3 Meanwhile, remove shrimp from marinade. Discard any remaining marinade. If desired, thread shrimp onto skewers for easier grilling. Brush bok choy with remaining 2 teaspoons sesame oil.
If using wooden skewers, soak thoroughly in water for at least 30 minutes before threading. This prevents them from burning when on the grill.
4 Grill shrimp over medium-high heat 2 minutes per side or just until shrimp turn pink and grill marks appear. Grill bok choy, cut-side down, 2 to 3 minutes or until lightly charred.
5 To serve, divide cooked rice among 4 serving bowls. Top each evenly with grilled bok choy, pickled radish mixture and shrimp. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
