Coconut lime Black Pepper Bowl

Method

1. Start by prepping your soy sauce, sesame oil, fresh ginger so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the shallots and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
3. Turn the heat up, add the black pepper, and cook until deeply browned and aromatic.
4. Stir in the soy sauce along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Taste and adjust, then finish with flaky sea salt right before serving.
6. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
