Kitchen Tools

• chef’s knife

Preparation

Start by heating olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Next, add the shrimp to the skillet and cook until pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the diced pineapple, bell pepper, and red onion. Cook for 5-6 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Stir in the soy sauce, honey, and chili powder. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet and toss everything together until well combined. Let the mixture simmer for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Tips

For an extra burst of flavor, try grilling the pineapple before dicing it. The slight char adds a smoky sweetness to the dish that really takes it to the next level.

Serving

Once the filling is ready, warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet for a few seconds on each side. Place a generous spoonful of the shrimp and pineapple mixture onto each tortilla. Garnish with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice for an extra pop of freshness.
