GRILLED PINEAPPLE AND SHRIMP

Steps:

• Heat a grill or large grill pan to medium-high heat.
• Pat the shrimp dry and place in a medium bowl. Add the garlic, shallot, lemon zest, coriander, olive oil, and 1/8 teaspoon salt, then very gently toss to combine. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes (up to 1 hour) to marinate.
