• In a liquid measuring cup, add your soy sauce, brown sugar, juice, vinegar and cayenne.
• Add your liquid mixture to the skillet and bring to a heavy simmer.

• Don't overcook your shrimp.
• At this time, you can throw in your pineapple chunks if you wish to use them.
• While your shrimp is cooking, mix your cornstarch with approximately 4-5 tablespoons of water (just enough to make it a liquid mixture-you may need a little more or a little less because I never measure the amount of water I use).
• Add the cornstarch mixture to your pan, and sir constantly until thick- this will not take very long at all.
• You may turn your heat down to medium-low.
