Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a small saucepan, combine honey, coriander, star anise, cumin, cloves, cinnamon, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, ginger, garlic, 1 ½ tablespoons cilantro, vinegar, ketchup and soy sauce. Bring to a simmer, and reduce until syrupy, about 25 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    In a small saucepan, combine carrot and ginger juices and remaining cilantro. Bring to a simmer, and reduce by three-quarters. Remove from heat, strain and season with salt and pepper.

  3. Step 3

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Preheat a grill or large skillet. Lightly oil shrimp, and season with salt and pepper. Grill or sear until barely pink, 1 to 2 minutes each side. Transfer to baking sheet, brush with honey glaze. Bake until just firm, about 5 minutes.

    Heat 1 tablespoon oil in heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add beans, bok choy and jicama, and sauté until hot. Stir in remaining lemon juice. Divide among 4 plates. Interlock two shrimp, and place on top. Sauce edge of plate; serve immediately.
