Steps:

  • Rice preparation: Prepare rice according to package, but use mixture of coconut milk & water for the liquid. Let stand for an additional 5 minutes so that when you fold in the remaining ingredients, the cilantro doesn't completely melt from the heat. Or, you could fold the cilantro into the rice right before serving. Shrimp preparation: prepare frying pan with butter on medium heat. Add shrimp, lime juice, pineapple and garlic sea salt. Sauté for around 7 minutes or until shrimp is heated throughout. Fold in chopped cilantro and sauté for an additional 1 or 2 minutes before serving. Makes 6 small servings.
