- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil

Directions
| Slaw | |
| Step 1 | |
| In a small bowl combine honey and rice vinegar. Mix well and add 1 cup shredded cabbage. Toss and set aside to marinate. | |
| Pancake | |
| Step 2 | |
| In a large bowl shred potatoes and Cabbage. Cut scallions about 2/3 up the stocks and add to potato and cabbage mix. With remaining greens, slice at an angle (about 1/4 inch slices) and reserve for topping. Add egg, gluten-free flour, salt and pepper to the pancake mix and toss to combine well. | |
| Step 3 | |
| Cut bacon strips in half and lay two halves down side by side for each pancake in a non-stick fry pan or pancake griddle. Pour enough batter to cover the bacon strips (about a 4" round). Cook until crisp on each side. | |
| Topping | |
| Step 4 | |
| While pancakes are cooking, remove any veins by slicing down the back of the shrimp and pulling out the dark vein. Saute shrimp in butter and olive oil just until they turn pink on both sides. Remove from heat and reserve for topping. | |
| Step 5 | |
| Toast Sesame seeds under the broiler until they turn light brown. Watch carefully, they can burn quickly. Set aside for topping. | |
| Step 6 | |
| Assemble by placing pancake (bacon-side down) on a dish. Add about 1/4 cup slaw on top of pancake followed by three cooked shrimp, green scallions, and sprinkling of toasted sesame seeds. Serve warm. | |
