Instructions
- To shrimp add smoked paprika, cayenne, ground cumin(optional), olive oil, brown sugar, juice of 1 lime, and salt and pepper to taste. Let it marinate for 10-15 minutes. While shrimp marinate, cut pineapple into cubes, you can use how to cut a pineapple post for reference.
- Soak bamboo skewer sticks in water for about 15-20 minutes to avoid burning. If using metal skewers, ignore this step. Fire up the grill.
- Thread in pineapple cubes, and marinated shrimp alternatively. Generously rub teriyaki sauce over it. Grill the shrimp on medium heat for 5-7 minutes, turning the shrimp halfway through the process.
- Don’t forget to slather some of the deliciousness of Hawaiian teriyaki sauce over the shrimp and pineapple in between grilling and as soon as they come out of the grill.
- Serve immediately. Perfect with rice or couscous. It's also great on tacos, sandwiches, for meal prep with rice, in salads almost everything.
Notes
- Nutritional Info – Please remember that the nutritional information provided is only a rough estimate and can vary greatly based on the products used.
- Fresh shrimp are best. If you want to use frozen shrimp, thaw completely and drain excess water, pat dry completely.
- Leave the tail on: Use jumbo shrimps. It's your choice, of course, to leave the tail on or remove it. I find it easy to handle and looks pretty with a tail. If you can't get hold of jumbo shrimps, small shrimps can be used. Skewering small shrimps might be challenging, use two skewers to skewer small shrimps so they hold their place. Grill carefully so shrimps don't fall through the grill holes.
- Ground cumin is optional. I love cumin, adds earthy warm flavors.
- For the best taste, serve shrimp skewers immediately as soon as it's grilled.
