  3. Heat a small skillet over medium heat; add in the remaining 1/2 cup shredded coconut; stir frequently and toast until golden, about 2-3 minutes (once the coconut starts to brown it will go from golden to burnt quickly, so keep an eye on it).

  6. Season shrimp with salt and pepper; add to the hot skillet.
  7. Stir/saute for 2 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink but are not yet firm, then remove from the pan to a plate; reserve.
  8. Return the skillet to the heat and add remaining 2 tablespoons oil; add in onions, cabbage, carrots, red pepper flakes, garlic, ginger, red bell pepper to the pan.
  9. Cook, stirring often, for 3-4 minutes.
  10. Add in the tamari and remaining cup of stock, then toss the shrimp back into the pan; stir to combine.
  11. Cook the shrimp and veggies for 2 more minutes, or until the shrimp are cooked through.
  12. Add the scallions, basil, half the cilantro, and lime juice; taste for seasoning, adding more tamari, salt, or pepper to taste.
  13. Add the reserved toasted coconut to the cooked rice; fluff rice with a fork.
  14. Serve the Thai shrimp on top of the coconut rice; sprinkle remaining cilantro over the top.
