GRILLED TERIYAKI SHRIMP AND PINEAPPLE SKEWERS

Grilled Teriyaki Shrimp and Pineapple Skewers image

These savory-sweet shrimp skewers are easy to make and cook in just a few minutes. They are perfect for summer weeknights or weekend dinner parties. Prep the sauce ahead of time for an even faster dinner. I prefer to use jumbo shrimp (21-25 per pound), however use what you have on hand.

Ingredients

⅓ cup water
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon grated fresh garlic
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
1 pound jumbo shrimp
½ fresh pineapple, cored and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
skewers
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

Combine water, soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, garlic, and ginger in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until sauce has reduced and thickened slightly, 8 to 10 minutes.
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil grate. Thread shrimp and pineapple alternately onto skewers and place on a platter.
Arrange skewers on the hot grate. Grill 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until shrimp is opaque and cooked through. Turn grill to low heat and brush sauce on both sides of skewers. Transfer to a serving platter and sprinkle with cilantro and sesame seeds.

GRILLED PINEAPPLE AND SHRIMP

Grilled Pineapple and Shrimp image

One day I was reading some Internet memes about putting pineapple on pizza and realized that in North America pineapple is rarely used in savory dishes. So, I ventured out to make a savory pineapple dish with flavors that I knew would work...plus my daughter wanted shrimp.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

12 jumbo shrimp (16/20 size), peeled with tail-on (about 12 ounces)
1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
1 teaspoon finely chopped shallot
1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon olive oil
Kosher salt
1/2 pineapple, peeled, cored and sliced into 6 spears
2 tablespoons chili oil
1/4 cup coconut milk
1 teaspoon honey
Fresh mint leaves, for garnish
Fresh basil leaves, for garnish

Steps:

Heat a grill or large grill pan to medium-high heat.
Pat the shrimp dry and place in a medium bowl. Add the garlic, shallot, lemon zest, coriander, olive oil, and 1/8 teaspoon salt, then very gently toss to combine. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes (up to 1 hour) to marinate.
Using a pair of 12-inch metal skewers, thread 6 of the shrimp on both the tail and "head" side, leaving about 1/2 inch of space between each shrimp. You will end up with a total of 2 sets of skewered shrimp (6 per pair of skewers).
Place the pineapple on a large plate and drizzle with the chili oil. Gently flip the spears around to thinly and evenly coat the pineapple all over.
Grill the pineapple without moving the spears too much until nicely caramelized grill marks form, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a large serving platter and finish seasoning with a touch of salt.
Grill the skewered shrimp over direct heat until pink and just firm at the thickest part, 2 to 3 minutes per side (they will continue to cook slightly as they cool, so try not to leave them on the grill too long!). Carefully remove the shrimp from the hot skewers and arrange them over the grilled pineapple.
Whisk the coconut milk and honey in a small bowl until the honey is fully dissolved. Drizzle over and around the shrimp and pineapple. Garnish with fresh mint and basil leaves and serve right away.
