Instructions
 

  • Make sure your shrimp are thawed the night before in the refrigerator or by thawing under running cold water.
  • Chop up all your ingredients for the pineapple salsa and combine/mix well into a bowl. Put into refrigerator to chill while the shrimp are cooking.
  • Melt the butter in the frying pan and after the butter has just melted, put the shrimp into the pan to cook with the stove temperature set just below medium.
  • Sprinkle the shrimp with half of the seasonings, squeeze half of the lime juice over it, and cook for around 2 minutes, then flip each shrimp over and add the remaining seasonings to the other side along with some of the lime juice.
  • Cook for around 2 minutes or until the shrimp are completely done. Shrimp are done when the color changes to white with pink stripes and they will curl up to a smaller size.
