ROASTED SHRIMP AND PINEAPPLE WITH PEANUT SAUCE

Roasted Shrimp and Pineapple With Peanut Sauce image

This tangy version of Thai-style peanut sauce, bright with chile, lime, and ginger, is excellent with chicken and beef - and outstanding with shrimp. Here, the sauce is paired with sweet, juicy pineapple and succulent shrimp, which broil in minutes. It's a quick, satisfying dinner with the added bonus of leftover peanut sauce, which will keep well in the fridge for at least five days.

Ingredients

1/2 cup smooth peanut butter, preferably natural
3 tablespoons unsweetened coconut milk
1 1/2 tablespoons lime juice, more as needed
2 teaspoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons grated ginger
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon sriracha or other hot sauce
1/4 teaspoon plus a pinch kosher salt, more as needed
1 1/2 tablespoons peanut oil
1/8 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1 pound cleaned large shrimp
2 cups pineapple chunks
Whole cilantro leaves and torn basil leaves, for garnish

Steps:

In a food processor or blender, combine peanut butter, coconut milk, 3 tablespoons hot water, lime juice, sugar, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, sriracha and a pinch of salt. Purée until smooth. Add more lime juice and or salt to taste. Scrape into a bowl.
Heat oven to 500 degrees. In a small bowl, whisk together peanut oil, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and red-pepper flakes. Thread shrimp on skewers; brush all over with half the peanut oil mixture. Thread pineapple on separate skewers; brush with remaining oil mixture. Arrange shrimp and pineapple skewers on a large rimmed baking sheet.
Roast skewers, turning them halfway through, until shrimp is opaque, about 5 minutes, and pineapple is lightly caramelized, about 10 minutes. (Use an oven mitt to remove shrimp skewers as they finish cooking but leave the pineapple in for longer). Sprinkle skewers with herbs and serve hot, with peanut sauce for dipping.

Tips:

Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
Choose Fresh Seafood: Use the freshest shrimp you can find. Fresh shrimp should have a briny smell and be firm to the touch.
Don't Overcook the Shrimp: Shrimp cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked shrimp will become tough and rubbery.
Use a Large Skillet: This will help to prevent the shrimp from overcrowding and ensure that they cook evenly.
Add the Sauce Last: Add the orange-pineapple sauce to the shrimp at the end of the cooking process. This will help to prevent the sauce from burning.
Serve Immediately: Shrimp with orange-pineapple sauce is best served immediately. The shrimp will become tough if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Shrimp with orange-pineapple sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet and savory flavors is sure to please everyone at the table. This dish is also a great way to get your daily dose of protein and omega-3 fatty acids.
