Teriyaki Pineapple Grilled Shrimp Skewers

Teriyaki pineapple grilled shrimp skewers have pineapple chucks and fresh shrimp are threaded into a skewer and slathered with teriyaki sauce. These ultra-delicious sweet, lightly spicy, shrimp skewers are the best summertime meal.
Ingredients
1 pound large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
1 pineapple (peeled and sliced into cubes)
½ cup teriyaki sauce (feel free to use more sauce if needed)
For the marinade
1 teaspoon of smoked paprika
1 teaspoon of cayenne
¼ teaspoon of cumin powder (optional, please skip if you don't like cumin flavors)
Salt and Pepper to taste
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon brown sugar
Juice of 1 lime
For garnish
Fresh coriander leaves
Lemon wedges
Method
1. Clean and devein shrimp, if you like leave the tail on. Add olive oil, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, ground cumin (optional), salt and pepper, brown sugar, and juice of 1 lime.
2. Toss shrimp well in the spice rub, and let it marinate for 10-15 minutes.
3. If using bamboo skewers soak in water for 15 minutes, to prevent the skewers from burning.
4. Drain skewers from water. Thread a cube of pineapple and marinated shrimp alternatively on the skewer.
5. Repeat with remaining shrimp and pineapple cubes.
6. Generously slather pineapple and shrimp with Hawaiian teriyaki sauce, and allow them to marinate for a couple of minutes.
7. Grill the shrimp over direct, medium heat for 5-7 minutes, turning the shrimp halfway through the process. Grill on direct fire on BBQ, I used a grilling pan on the stovetop.
8. Don’t forget to slather the Hawaiian teriyaki sauce over the shrimp and pineapple during the grill and as soon as they come out of the grill. Flip and grill on the other side for 1-2 minutes or until shrimp is cooked through and pineapple cubes have beautiful char on them.
9. Serve immediately with rice, couscous, or shrimp with lettuce wraps.
