Time 2h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

½ cup coconut milk
⅓ cup lime juice
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
3 tablespoons coconut oil, or more to taste
2 tablespoons shredded coconut
4 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
½ tablespoon garam masala
¼ teaspoon curry powder
1 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 package wooden skewers
1 ½ cups pineapple chunks
1 (8 ounce) package baby bella mushrooms

Steps:

  • Mix coconut milk, lime juice, cilantro, coconut oil, shredded coconut, garlic, garam masala, and curry powder together in a large bowl. Add shrimp. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  • While shrimp marinates, fill a pan with water. Soak skewers in water so they will not burn during grilling.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Thread shrimp, pineapple, and mushrooms onto 2 skewers at a time, placed about 1/2-inch apart, so you can turn skewers easily while grilling. Brush with marinade.
  • Grill skewers on the preheated grill until shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
