Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter divided
- ¼ cup honey
- 4 cloves garlic large, crushed, or 1 tablespoons minced garlic
- 2 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice juice of ½ a lemon
- 1 pound Shrimp or prawns, tail on or off
- 1 pinch salt to taste
- 1 pinch cracked pepper to taste, optional
- 1 cup fresh pineapple chopped
- 3 lemon slices to serve
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
- Soak the wooden skewers for at least 20 minutes before cooking. Once soaked, arrange shrimp onto skewers, alternating with pineapple pieces.
- In a small saucepan over low-medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter with the honey, garlic and soy sauce together. Stir until combined well and allow to simmer for 3-4 minutes, or until beginning to thicken into a syrup. Take off the heat and stir in lemon juice.
- Season shrimp with a pinch of salt and a small amount of cracked pepper (optional) Using a brush, coat the honey garlic butter sauce on both sides of each shrimp skewer. Heat the remaining butter in a large pan or skillet (or grill pan) over medium heat. Working in batches of three or four, sear the skewers for 3-4 minutes on one side, while pouring a small amount of sauce over each shrimp while cooking; flip over and cook on the other side (pouring a little more sauce over the shrimp while cooking), for a further 3-4 minutes, or until the shrimp is completely cooked through and no longer opaque.
- Remove from pan and serve immediately with any remaining sauce to use for dipping! Garnish with chopped parsley. Enjoy!
