Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

2. Put a non-reactive large saucepan over high heat and add the pineapple juice, vinegar, brown sugar, jalapeno, garlic, ginger, coriander and cumin. Bring the mixture to a boil and allow to reduce until thickened while the shrimp is cooking, about 4 minutes.

3. Thread 3 shrimp onto each of 8 skewers, season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with the olive oil. Put the skewers on the grill and cook until the shrimp turn pink, about 2 minutes per side.

4. Remove the shrimp from the grill and put on a platter. Strain the pineapple sauce into a bowl, brush it on both sides of the shrimp and serve.
