  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1 cup pineapple juice
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, grated

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a mixing bowl, combine the coconut milk, pineapple juice, soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Whisk until well blended.
  2. Step 2: Add the shrimp to the marinade and ensure they are fully coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
  3. Step 3: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 20 minutes to prevent burning.

  5. Step 5: Grill the shrimp skewers for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through. Season with salt and pepper before serving.
  6. Step 6: Serve immediately with additional lime wedges and fresh cilantro if desired. Enjoy your delicious coconut pineapple juice grilled shrimp!

Notes

  • For optimal freshness, store any leftover grilled shrimp in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, ensuring they retain their flavor and texture.
  • When reheating, gently warm the shrimp in a skillet over low heat to avoid overcooking and maintain their tenderness; you can also add a splash of coconut milk to keep them moist.
  • Serve the grilled shrimp skewers with a side of coconut rice and a fresh salad for a tropical feast, or garnish with lime wedges and fresh cilantro for an extra burst of flavor.
  • For the best results, marinate the shrimp for at least 1 hour instead of 30 minutes to enhance their flavor absorption from the coconut milk and pineapple juice mixture.
