Cilantro-Lime Marinated Grilled Pineapple Shrimp is easy to make, delicious, and super fresh.

I like to marinate the shrimp for about 2 hours. I also like using fresh pineapple when available.

However, canned also works, too. Buying the shrimp already deveined can save time.

Enjoy the fresh flavors of the cilantro, lime, and pineapple. Deelish!

What Grill We Use:
We use the Weber Spirit S-315 Liquid Propane Gas Stainless Steel Grill because it heats up quickly. It’s easy to clean. It has a lot of space to keep the food warm and away from the direct heat if needed. And the grill has a cool fuel gage so you know how much gas you have left.
