Cooking Steps
• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry all produce. • Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Peel and grate or mince ginger. Peel and mince garlic. Quarter lime.
• Melt 1 TBSP butter in a small pot over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites and half the ginger; cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Add rice, 1¼ cups water (2¼ cups for 4 servings), and a big pinch of salt to same pot. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
• While rice cooks, rinse shrimp* and pat dry with paper towels. Toss in a medium bowl with garlic, remaining ginger, and 1 TBSP katsu sauce (2 TBSP for 4 servings). Season with salt and pepper. Set aside to marinate for at least 5 minutes. • Transfer remaining katsu sauce to a small microwave-safe bowl; cover with plastic wrap.
• Meanwhile, toss green beans on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. • Roast on top rack, tossing halfway through, until browned and slightly crisp, 12-15 minutes.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add marinated shrimp and cook, stirring, until shrimp is opaque and cooked through, 3-4 minutes. • Microwave katsu sauce in bowl until warm, 1 minute. • Divide rice between plates; top with green beans and shrimp. Sprinkle with scallion greens and as many sesame seeds as you like. Serve with katsu sauce and lime wedges on the side.

Reviews from our home cooks
I added extra ginger and garlic to the rice and shrimp. Mixed the sauteed garlic and ginger from the shrimp pan with the Katsu sauce to drizzle on top and made this even more delicious. Big hit in our house
There was a generous portion of shrimp and the sauce was delicious. I had never "roasted" green beans before and was surprised at how tasty they were. Learning to season rice with ginger and shallots makes me think I can now fix rice that is delicious for any meal.
LOVED the ginger shrimp with Katsu sauce. Recipe was easy and thorough, and the meal was delicious! Can't wait to order it again!
Very easy to make! The katsu sauce with the ginger on the shrimp was incredible!
Very tasty! The shrimp with the Katsu sauce had great flavor and the rice with the ginger and garlic was tasty as well.
Who knew that rice could taste so good! This meal was so easy to prepare and a taste sensation. The tangy ginger/garlic combination and the katsu sauce added zip to the meal. The lime and scallions gave a final perkiness.
Really loved the shrimp and green beans were delicious. Roasted veggies have a really good taste and are easy to prepare. Shrimp with ginger was a wonderful change, thanks.
The green beans did not have much flavor. There was not enough katsu sauce to drizzle over the top at the end. Additionally, the shrimp did not taste very fresh. However, the rice and katsu sauce were delicious. To my taste, there could have been more ginger flavor in this dish.
The Katsu didn't pair well with the shrimp. Perhaps a teriyaki would have been a better choice? The rice & green beans were great though, the ginger & scallions add a nice flavor
Loved! This meal worked perfectly together with shrimp, rice, and green beans. Delicious Katsu sauce was the finishing touch!
