• Cook rice according to package directions. Stir in beans; cover and keep warm., While rice cooks, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion until tender, 3-4 minutes. Stir in pineapple juice, brown sugar and chili sauce; bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, on high until liquid is reduced to 1/2 cup, 10-12 minutes., For salsa, toss pineapple with red pepper, cilantro, red onion, lime juice, salt and pepper., Once sauce has reduced, stir in shrimp and return just to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until shrimp turns pink, 2-3 minutes. Serve with rice mixture and salsa.

Steps:

• In a resealable plastic bag, add the shrimp, 3 tablespoons soy sauce, the lemongrass, 1 tablespoon of ginger and the cornstarch and combine well. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• In a large saute pan over high heat, heat the peanut oil and add half the shrimp mixture. Saute for 3 to 4 minutes and remove. Repeat for second batch of shrimp, adding additional oil, if necessary.
• Add in the red bell peppers and the onions and saute for 3 minutes, then add the jalapeno, garlic, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of ginger. Stir in the remaining soy sauce and add the shrimp back into the saute pan. Heat until warmed through. Transfer to a serving platter and serve with the Fruit Salsa.
• In a glass bowl, combine the mint, serrano pepper, ginger, rice vinegar and red pepper flakes. Stir in the pineapple, the onions, red bell pepper and apricots. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• For the shrimp mousse: In a food processor, add the shrimp and eggs and blend until almost smooth. Add the butter and season with salt and pepper. Pulse until the butter is incorporated, but still visible in small pieces. Gently fold in the ginger and scallions.
• Test a small piece for flavor by sauteing 1 teaspoon in a small nonstick skillet with oil until the mousse is bright pink and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes, or microwaving until bright pink and cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Place the uncooked mousse in an airtight container, cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Makes 4 cups.
• For the shrimp toast: In a large saute pan, heat 2 to 3 tablespoons oil, or enough to generously coat the pan, over medium-high heat.
• Reserve 2 to 3 tablespoons of the scallion greens for garnish. On a plate, gently combine the remaining scallions and sesame seeds.
• Spread 1/4-inch layer of the shrimp mousse on each slice of the bread and sprinkle on the scallion and sesame seed mixture.
• Carefully place 1 or 2 shrimp toasts in the saute pan, mousse-side down and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate, drain well and cut diagonally. Repeat with the remaining shrimp toasts.
• In a small bowl, combine the pineapple with the sambal oelek. Start with the 2 teaspoons of sambal oelek and add more as you'd like until you've reached the desired heat level you like.
• On a platter, align the triangles and garnish with the pineapple-sambal salsa and remaining 2 to 3 tablespoons of scallion greens to serve.

Steps:

• Spray grill with nonstick spray; preheat barbecue (medium-high heat). Thread shrimp on 6 skewers. Whisk 2 tablespoons oil and 2 tablespoons lime juice in small bowl to blend; brush mixture over shrimp. Sprinkle shrimp with salt and pepper; let marinate 15 minutes.
• Sprinkle 12 pineapple slices with salt and pepper. Grill pineapple until just tender, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to work surface; cut pineapple into 1/2-inch pieces. Place in bowl; mix in onion, cilantro, chili, remaining 2 tablespoons oil and 2 tablespoons lime juice. Season salsa with salt and pepper.
• Grill shrimp until just opaque in center, about 5 minutes. Serve with salsa.

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor, combine the shrimp, onion, ginger, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper. Process until mixture is finely chopped. With the motor running, add the egg whites through the feed tube, and process until well combined.
• Place the breadcrumbs in a small bowl. Spread about 1/4 inch of shrimp mixture onto one side of each piece of bread, and coat with breadcrumbs; transfer to a baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap, and chill up to 1 hour, if desired.
• Pour enough oil to come 1 1/2 inches up the sides of a large skillet, and heat to 360 degrees. Working in batches, add bread pieces to hot oil. Fry, turning occasionally, until golden brown on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels; season with salt, if desired. Serve immediately.
