Instructions
- Place pineapple, red pepper and jalapeño peppers on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place in a 400 degree oven for about 13 minutes. While those ingredients are cooking, mix spices together until well combined and toss with shrimp and a little olive until coated. After 13 minutes, add shrimp to pan, making sure to spread out ingredients. Cook for about 10 minutes or until shrimp are no longer pink.
- While shrimp are cooking, place all drizzle ingredients in a high speed blender except the grapeseed oil. Blend until well combined. Slowly add oil until mixture is creamy. Set aside.
