PINA COLADA SHRIMP



Pina Colada Shrimp image

This is out of a cookbook called "Patio Daddy-O" 50's recipes with a 90's twist...If you plan to serve this with rice, try cooking the grains in coconut milk instead of water...I can see using my George Foreman grill or any outside grill to cook the shrimp...cooking time does not include marinating time...hope you enjoy!

PIñA COLADA DIPPING SAUCE



Piña Colada Dipping Sauce image

This is a wonderful dipping sauce like the one you'll find at Red Lobster, served with their Parrot Bay Coconut Shrimp. One of the times I've had this at the restaurant I was with a bunch of friends, and - on a whim - we dipped everything we'd ordered in it... and it ALL tasted good in it. Even the broccoli! :) From then on, we called it "crack."

Grilled Drunken Pina Colada Shrimp image

Easier than you can even imagine and full of the taste of the islands. Great with my Pineapple Wasabi Aioli (#272187). Prep time includes the 30 minute marinating time. Great as a meal with greens, veggies and rice or as finger food/appetizers.
