- 9 large tiger shrimp de-veined raw with shell
- 1 cup fresh pineapple cut into chunks
- optional: Toasted coconut flakes for garnishing
Pina Colada marinade
- 1/4 cup coconut milk
- 2 tbsp pineapple juice just use left over juice from cutting your pineapple
- 1 tsp sambal I like this brand
- zest and juice of 1/2 lime
- pinch of sea salt and black pepper
In a medium sized bowl whisk in all of you ingredients except for the shrimp. Reserve a little bit for grilling later and then add shrimp, gentle mix to coat, cover and marinate for 30 min.
Using a bamboo skewer that has been soaked in water for at least an hour, start to thread shrimp and fruit onto the skewers alternating ingredients.
Turn on grill to medium high. Once grill is nice and hot, add kebabs and cook for about 4 min on each side until fully cooked.
Brush with a little of the reserved marinade onto the kebabs while cooking if you like to add some flavour and keep them from sticking to the grill.
