Directions

  1. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.

  2. Rinse rice in cold water until water runs clear. Drain and combine with coconut milk, water, and 1 teaspoon salt in a pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Cover, reduce heat to low and simmer until tender, about 12 minutes. Fluff rice with a fork.

  3. Mix prawns and 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce together in a bowl until well coated.

  4. Toss asparagus with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, sesame oil, and black pepper. Lay on 1 side of the grill, cook until tender, about 3 minutes. Flip. Add prawns to the other side of the grill. Grill shrimp until opaque and asparagus is lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer to a platter.

  5. Divide the rice between 4 plates. Top with prawns and asparagus. Sprinkle scallions and sesame seeds on top. Drizzle 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce on top.
