Ingredients

  • 1 pound Shrimp (cleaned; deveined; tails on)
  • Kosher Salt and Freshly Ground Pepper
  • 2 teaspoons Toasted Coriander (ground)
  • 1 tablespoon Red Pepper Flakes
  • 1 teaspoon Sesame Oil
  • 2 tablespoons Coconut Oil (in liquid state)or canola oil
  • 1 Pineapple (cut in chunks)
  • 1 tablespoon Honey
  • 1 Orange (juiced)
  • 4 Scallions (sliced)
  • Juice of 2 - 3 Limes

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium heat.

In a medium bowl, whisk together a pinch of Salt, a few cracks of Freshly Ground Pepper, Coriander, Red Pepper Flakes, Sesame Oil, and Coconut Oil. Add the Shrimp and toss to coat. Thread the shrimp onto skewers.


In a large bowl, toss the Pineapple with the Honey, Orange Juice, and small pinch of Salt. Thread the Pineapple onto skewers. Grill the Pineapple for 3 to 4 minutes, or until caramelized and lightly charred. Be careful as it will burn easily.

Grill the Shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until just opaque.

Remove to a platter and sprinkle with Scallions and freshly squeezed Lime Juice. Serve.
