• Combine water, soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, garlic, and ginger in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until sauce has reduced and thickened slightly, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil grate. Thread shrimp and pineapple alternately onto skewers and place on a platter.
• Arrange skewers on the hot grate. Grill 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until shrimp is opaque and cooked through. Turn grill to low heat and brush sauce on both sides of skewers. Transfer to a serving platter and sprinkle with cilantro and sesame seeds.

GRILLED ORANGE CHICKEN THIGH SKEWERS WITH PINEAPPLE AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Combine coconut aminos, orange juice, avocado oil, ginger, and chile-garlic paste in a gallon-sized resealable bag. Season marinade with salt and pepper and add chicken pieces. Gently squeeze the sides of the bag, coating all of the chicken with the marinade. Squeeze out as much air as possible, seal, and spread out chicken pieces in a single layer inside the bag.
• Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, turning the bag a few times during that time.
• Drain marinade into a small saucepan and add pineapple juice. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and boil until marinade has reduced to 1/2 cup, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
• Meanwhile, alternately thread each skewer with chicken, bell pepper, onion, zucchini, and pineapple. Repeat until each skewer is filled.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Set skewers on the hot grill grate. Brush with reduced marinade, reduce heat to medium, close the lid, and grill 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and brush with marinade reduction. Monitor for flare-ups, and move skewers as necessary to manage any flames. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Serve skewers over hot cooked rice.

GRILLED PORK AND PINEAPPLE SKEWERS WITH ACHIOTE SAUCE

Steps:

• Put wooden skewers in a pan of water for 30 minutes, so they don't burn on the grill.
• Heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the achiote seeds. Turn off the heat and let the seeds steep until the oil turns a vibrant orange-red, about 5 minutes. Strain the oil through a fine-mesh sieve into a blender: discard the seeds. Add the vinegar, garlic, aji amarillo, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cover the blender and puree until well combined.
• Place the pork in a resealable gallon-sized plastic bag. Add the achiote marinade, turn the bag to coat the pork, squeeze out the air, and seal. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to overnight.
• Preheat an outdoor grill or grill pan to medium-high (you may also preheat the oven broiler.)
• Remove the pork from the marinade; discard the marinade. Thread the pork onto the skewers alternating with the pineapple and red onions. Grill (or broil) the pork skewers until they are browned on all sides, 4 to 6 minutes total cooking time. Take care not to overcook or the pork will become tough and dry. Serve the pork skewers on a bed of lettuce leaves and garnish with lime wedges. Pull the pork off the skewers onto a lettuce leaf and eat like a taco. For a great presentation, stick the skewers into a whole pineapple and put on the table with the lettuce and lime on the side.

GRILLED JERK SHRIMP & PINEAPPLE SKEWERS RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• JERK MARINADE: Purée all ingredients in a food processor. Scotch bonnet peppers can be a little hot so you may want to start by adding half a pepper, testing the heat level and continue adding more until the marinade is as hot as you want. Marinate the shrimp in half of the jerk marinade for at least 20 minutes and up to over night. Skewer the shrimp and pineapple and grill over medium-high heat until cooked, about 2-3 minutes per side.
