GRILLED FISH ON PINEAPPLE PLANKS WITH SPICY PINEAPPLE SALSA
This elegant yet incredibly easy preparation uses almost all the parts of a pineapple to yield tasty fillets of bass or snapper. The pineapple's peel acts as a buffer against the direct heat of the grill, preventing overcooking and keeping the fish moist, and its flesh becomes a tasty salsa that brings home the island flavors. The plating of the fish, right on the pineapple "planks," is dramatic and fun.

Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Cut the top from the pineapple and discard. Cut the sides off to make 4 flat planks. Finely dice the pineapple flesh (discard the core) and put it in a medium bowl.
- Finely grate the ginger and add half to the bowl with the pineapple; reserve the rest. Add the cilantro, oil, tomatoes, bell pepper, jalapeno, lime juice and onion to the diced pineapple. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt, then toss well and refrigerate while you make the fish.
- Stir the soy sauce and honey together with the remaining ginger in a small bowl. Brush the fish with oil and sprinkle lightly with salt. Brush the tops (the flesh side) of the pineapple planks with some of the soy sauce mixture and place the fish fillets on top of the planks. Brush the remaining soy sauce mixture on the tops of the fillets, folding the thinner part of the fillets under if needed to fit on the plank.
- Place the pineapple planks on the grill, cover and cook until the fish is just cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Serve the fish on the planks topped with some of the salsa. Serve the remaining salsa on the side or reserve to serve with chips.

CREAMY CURRIED SHRIMP WITH GRILLED PINEAPPLE
Impress your guests with an attractive platter of curry-sauced shrimp skewered onto grilled pineapple wedges with toothpicks. This is an excellent, not-too-hard shrimp appetizer that's perfect for special occasions. It's best served at room temperature. I used approximately 1 pound of 30-40 count shrimp. But any medium to large size shrimp will do. You need approximately 30 shrimp. The shrimp and sauce may be cooked in advance and chilled.

BBQ SHRIMP ON PINEAPPLE PLANKS
Grilled slabs of pineapple topped with a simple relish and chipotle-glazed shrimp in each bite creates an amazing flavor combination. Sweet, juicy pineapple is key, using an unripe or flavorless pineapple makes this recipe a wasted effort. The recipe indicates 8 appetizer servings but we use the large (24 count) size and serve it as dinner along with a rice pilaf for 4. I can't recall what magazine I clipped this from but it is the best shrimp I have ever tasted and it is a huge wow with any guests we have served it to.

Steps:
- Soak eight 6 to 8 inch wooden or bamboo skewers in enough water to cover for at least 30 minutes; drain. Thaw shrimp, if frozen.
- Cut pineapple lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Chop one of the slices to measure 1/2 cup; set aside for relish. Halve each pineapple slice crosswise (you should have eight planks of pineapple). Using one tablespoon of the melted butter, brush both sides of each pineapple plank; set aside.
- Peel shrimp, leaving tail intact if desired. Devein shrimp. In medium mixing bowl combine barbecue sauce, chipotle peppers, remaining 2 tablespoons melted margarine or butter, and the garlic. Stir in shrimp. Cover and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove shrimp, discarding marinade. Thread one jumbo or three large shrimp onto each skewer; set aside.
- For relish, in a bowl combine the reserved 1/2 cup chopped pineapple, the chopped cucumber, jicama, lime juice, and salt. Cover and set aside until serving time.
- Prepare charcoal grill or preheat a gas grill. Grill shrimp kabobs and pineapple planks on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals until shrimp are opaque and pineapple is heated through, turning once halfway through grilling time. (Allow 10 to 12 minutes for jumbo shrimp, 6 to 10 minutes for large shrimp, and 6 to 8 minutes for pineapple planks.) If desired, brush each shrimp kabob with additional bottled barbecue sauce during the last 1 minute of grilling. (For gas grill, place kabobs and pineapple on grill rack over heat. Cover and grill as above.).
- To serve, stir snipped cilantro into the relish mixture. Place pineapple planks onto a serving platter. Spoon some of the relish over the pineapple planks; top each with a shrimp skewer.
