Steps:
- Drain pineapple chunks, reserving ¾ cup juice.
- Place pineapple juice in a small saucepan. Add cornstarch, curry powder, salt, and pepper; whisk to remove any cornstarch lumps. Bring mixture to a boil over medium-high heat and boil until thickened. Cool. Once cooled, stir in mayonnaise and sour cream.
- Cook macaroni in salted water according to package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water. Drain well and place in a large bowl.
- Add pineapple, shrimp, chopped red pepper, and chopped green onions to the macaroni; toss gently to combine. Add pineapple dressing and toss gently to coat.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld.
- At serving time, taste and adjust salt and pepper to taste. I typically add about another ¼ to ½ teaspoon salt to brighten the flavor.
AIR FRYER COCONUT SHRIMP WITH PINEAPPLE SALAD
Some coconut shrimp recipes call for sweetened coconut, but we preferred shredded unsweetened coconut in this recipe. It adds a lot of coconut flavor without making the dish too sweet. Quickly cooked in the air fryer, these shrimp are served with a tangy and sweet pineapple salad and some fresh red pepper to tie everything together.

Steps:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Season the shrimp with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Beat the eggs in a large shallow bowl with a pinch of salt. Toss the coconut and panko together in another large shallow bowl. Dip the shrimp in the egg, letting the excess drip back into the bowl. Then, drop the shrimp in the coconut mixture and toss to coat, pressing with your fingers to adhere evenly. As you coat the shrimp, lay them on the baking sheet.
- Brush an air fryer rack with olive oil and preheat to 375˚ F. When the air fryer is ready, add half of the shrimp and cook, turning halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through, 6 minutes. Remove to a plate and repeat with the remaining shrimp.
- While the shrimp cook, combine the pineapple, bell pepper and red onion in a bowl. Drizzle with the olive oil, lime juice and sweet chili sauce; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Toss well.
- Before serving, add the watercress to the pineapple salad and toss. Serve the shrimp with the salad and more sweet chili sauce for dipping.

Steps:
- For the shrimp: Preheat the grill or the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Prepare the pineapple and sauce. Slice the pineapple in half. Slice the core out of the center and discard. Cut out the flesh, leaving a 1-inch border all the way around. Finely chop two-thirds of the pineapple flesh and set aside in a bowl. Add the remaining pineapple flesh to a blender along with the BBQ sauce. Season with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper, then blend until smooth.
- Prepare the shrimp. Add the shrimp to an aluminum foil pouch (or create a pouch with aluminum foil), then sprinkle with salt and pepper and pour the pineapple BBQ sauce over the top. Close the pouch and place over the direct heat of the grill, or on the bottom rack of the oven. Cook until a quick peek inside reveals opaque shrimp, 10 to 12 minutes.
- For the rice: In the bowl with the reserved chopped pineapple, add the rice, cilantro, scallions, zest and salt and pepper to taste. Stir to combine.
- To serve: Divide and fill both halves of the pineapple with the rice. Remove the shrimp from the pouch and top both pineapple halves equally. Pour the juices from the pouch over everything. Top with the cilantro and serve with lime wedges for spritzing.
