GRILLED TERIYAKI SHRIMP AND PINEAPPLE SKEWERS
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.

Steps:
- Halve the avocado and scoop into a food processor. Add the sour cream, chopped jalapeno, 1/2 cup cilantro and 2 teaspoons lime juice; process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a grill to medium high and oil the grates. Toss the shrimp with 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, 2 teaspoons fajita seasoning, the remaining 2 teaspoons lime juice, a big pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Thread the shrimp onto skewers, leaving a little space between each shrimp. Toss the bell peppers, pineapple and whole jalapeno with the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, 1/2 teaspoon fajita seasoning, 2 pinches of salt and a few grinds of pepper in another large bowl.
- Grill the shrimp until cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side; transfer to a large bowl. Grill the pineapple and tortillas until well-marked, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board.
- Place the bell peppers and whole jalapeno in a grill basket and grill, flipping, until charred, 5 to 6 minutes. Chop the pineapple and add to the shrimp. Thinly slice the jalapeno (remove the seeds for less heat). Add to the shrimp along with the bell peppers and remaining 1/2 cup cilantro; season with salt if needed and toss.
- Divide the shrimp mixture among plates. Serve with the tortillas, avocado sauce and lime wedges.

GRILLED PINEAPPLE AND SHRIMP
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.

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.
PINEAPPLE BOAT SHRIMP WITH FRUIT SALSA
Steps:
- In a resealable plastic bag, add the shrimp, 3 tablespoons soy sauce, the lemongrass, 1 tablespoon of ginger and the cornstarch and combine well. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- In a large saute pan over high heat, heat the peanut oil and add half the shrimp mixture. Saute for 3 to 4 minutes and remove. Repeat for second batch of shrimp, adding additional oil, if necessary.
- Add in the red bell peppers and the onions and saute for 3 minutes, then add the jalapeno, garlic, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of ginger. Stir in the remaining soy sauce and add the shrimp back into the saute pan. Heat until warmed through. Transfer to a serving platter and serve with the Fruit Salsa.
- In a glass bowl, combine the mint, serrano pepper, ginger, rice vinegar and red pepper flakes. Stir in the pineapple, the onions, red bell pepper and apricots. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
