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!

Time 21m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/4 lbs shrimp (about 36 medium-large )
1 cup coconut milk, canned
6 tablespoons fresh lime juice (about 3 limes)
1 cup pineapple juice, canned
1/2 cup dark rum
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, minced
1 garlic clove, minced
salt
black pepper
steamed rice (optional)

Steps:

  • Peel the shrimp and devein them under running water.
  • In a medium bowl, combine all the remaining ingredients except the rice.
  • Add the shrimp, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 5 hours (if it sits longer than this the lime juice will "cook' the shrimp).
  • Using a slotted spoon, remove the shrimp from the marinade and thread on metal skewers.
  • Prepare a fire in a charcoal grill.
  • When the coals are medium hot, place the skewers on the cooking rack and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until the shrimp turn pink.
  • Serve with steamed rice, if you like.

I've made this recipe several times, and it's always a hit. It's a great way to use up leftover pineapple.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my shrimp turned out really bland. I think I might have forgotten to add the salt.

I made these shrimp for my family, and they loved them! Even my picky kids ate them all up.

I'm allergic to pineapple, so I substituted mango in this recipe. It was still really good!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my shrimp turned out a little dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

I'm not a big fan of coconut, but these shrimp were surprisingly good! The pineapple and rum flavors really balanced out the coconut flavor.

These shrimp were a hit at my last party! I marinated them for a few hours before cooking, and they were so flavorful and juicy. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
