Sweet Chili Pineapple Garlic Shrimp

 

1 lb raw shrimp (peeled and deveined)
1/3 cup sweet chili sauce

2 Tbsp soy sauce

2 Tbsp honey

1/2 Tbsp garlic (minced)

1/4 cup pineapple juice

1 Tbsp olive oil

20 oz pineapple chunks

2 tsp corn starch

2 Tbsp cold water

2 green onions sliced

Rice for serving

In a medium bowl combine the chili sauce, soy sauce, honey, garlic, and pineapple juice.

Add the peeled shrimp to the marinade and stir to coat.  

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. 

Add the shrimp along with the marinade and cook for 3 - 5 minutes, just until shrimp is opaque.

Use a slotted spoon to remove the shrimp to a plate, leaving the sauce in the pan.  

In a small bowl stir together the cornstarch and cold water.  

Add the cornstarch mixture to the saucepan and simmer until thickened.  

Turn off the heat and add the shrimp back to the pan along with the pineapple chunks.  Stir to combine.  

Serve with the rice and top with green onions.
