Spicy Shrimp & Pineapple Skewers with Coconut Lime Glaze

A burst of sweet and spicy flavor! These shrimp skewers are marinated in a vibrant ginger-garlic blend, grilled to perfection, and drizzled with a tangy coconut lime glaze.

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb peeled & deveined shrimp
  • 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon grated ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 lime, juiced

For the Coconut Lime Glaze:

  • 1/2 cup coconut milk
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon chili flakes (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Marinate the Shrimp: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, honey, ginger, and garlic. Add the shrimp and marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
  2. Assemble Skewers: Thread the marinated shrimp, pineapple chunks, and bell pepper pieces onto skewers.
  3. Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the skewers for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.
  4. Make the Glaze: While the skewers are grilling, combine coconut milk, lime juice, brown sugar, and chili flakes (if using) in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
  5. Glaze & Serve: Drizzle the warm glaze over the grilled skewers and serve immediately.
