Instructions
- Combine shrimp with garlic, pineapple juice, green onion and Sambal Olek in a zip-lock bag.
- Marinate for 6 hours up to overnight in the fridge.
- I place the zip lock bag in a container to prevent leaks from getting in the fridge.
- Heat olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat.
- Remove shrimp from the marinade (reserve the marinade).
- Season shrimp with salt and pepper.
- Working in 2 batches, to not over crowd the pan, saute 2-3 minutes per side for shrimp or until they are pink and curly.
- Set aside on a plate once each batch is done.
- Add pineapple into the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes, then remove it from the pan and set aside.
- Add marinade into the pan and cook for 3-5 minutes or until it has reduced by half and is caramel in color.
- Add shrimp and pineapple back into pan, cook for another minute until shrimp and pineapple are warmed through.
- Garnish with green onion and serve over rice.
- Serve immediately.
