Ingredients:

4 each 5-6 oz. skinned salmon fillet
24 each 26-30 count peeled shrimp
4 each Bamboo skewers (soaked in water for 10-15 minutes)
8 each Fresh pineapple half moons (super sweet variety)
Olive Oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Sweet chili sauce (choose your favorite brand, but make sure it is
sweet)

Note: Sweet chili sauce is usually found in the Asian specialties
section of your local market. It should not be confused with the
thicker tomato version of chili sauce

Preparation:

Brush both sides of salmon with olive oil and season with salt and
pepper.

After soaking the skewers, slide 6 shrimp onto each skewer, leaving
room on either end. Brush both sides with olive oil and season with
salt and pepper.

Cut the fresh pineapple into slices approximately half inch in
diameter and then cut in half. Brush both sides with olive oil.

On a medium heated grill, place the salmon flesh side down. Grill
approximately 6-7 minutes per side or until the fish reaches 150
degrees.

Grill shrimp approximately 3-4 minutes per side or until 150
degrees.

Grill pineapple for 2-3 minutes per side or until there is good
carmelization.

Brush all items generously with the sweet chili sauce.

To serve, place the pineapple at the top of each plate and
crisscross. Top the pineapple with a scoop of your favorite rice.
Crisscross the salmon and the shrimp skewer on top of the rice.
Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve with your favorite vegetable.

Serves 6
