Steak And Shrimp Pineapple Bowl Food

ROASTED SEAFOOD-STUFFED PINEAPPLE

Steps:

• Cut pineapple in half lengthwise. Using a small paring knife, make a cut about 1/2-inch from the pineapple skin, all the way around the pineapple. Remove core and discard. Using a large spoon, remove the pineapple flesh from its skin, making sure to leave about 1/2-inch of flesh all around each pineapple half. Set pineapple shells aside and coarsely chop pineapple flesh.
• Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add chopped pineapple, bay leaves, sugar, chile powder, and 1/4 teaspoon pimiento arabe. Cook, stirring often, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and set aside to cool. This can be made up to a day in advance; refrigerate until needed and discard bay leaves before using.
• Position rack in center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
• Place adobo sauce in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat, adding water if sauce seems too thick. Place fish and shrimp in a large bowl; season with 1 teaspoon salt and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pimienta arabe and toss to combine.
• Brush the inside of each pineapple shell with adobo sauce. Divide seafood mixture evenly between each pineapple shell; sprinkle with cilantro. Spread pineapple mixture over seafood, and pour over any remaining adobo sauce. Wrap crowns of pineapple with foil and transfer pineapples to prepared baking sheets. Bake for 20 minutes.
• Tuck 4 clams into the stuffing of each pineapple; sprinkle cheese over each. Return pineapples to oven and continue baking until clams have opened, filling is bubbling, and cheese is lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Let stand several minutes before serving.

STEAK AND SHRIMP SPECIAL

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to high. Alternatively, preheat a broiler to high. Season the steaks liberally with the steak seasoning on both sides. Cook the steaks over high heat to order: about 2 minutes on each side for rare, 2 1/2 minutes on each side for medium-rare, 3 1/2 minutes on each side for medium, and 4 1/2 minutes on each side for medium well. Halfway through the cooking time on each side, turn each steak 45 degrees to make grill marks.
• Add half the clarified butter to a large skillet and heat over high heat. Add the shrimp skewers and cook the shrimp on both sides until they are opaque throughout, about 1 to 2 minutes per side.
• Fill a deep fryer with oil and heat it to 350 degrees F. Alternatively, heat oil in a large, heavy Dutch oven to 350 degrees F; do not fill pan more than halfway full with oil. Drop the fries into the fryer and cook until they are golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove to a paper towel lined plate to drain and season the fries with salt.
• To serve, place 1 steak on a plate, top the steak with skewered shrimp, and add some French fries. Garnish with a lemon wedge and serve with a small dish of clarified butter on the side. Serve immediately.

PINEAPPLE SHRIMP BOWLS

Steps:

• Carefully slice your pineapples in half lengthways through the stem.
• Next, lay the pineapple halves cut side up onto the cutting board. Using a paring knife, cut around the edges, leaving a 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick edge as shown. This will help you to carve the flesh easier. Scoop out the pineapple flesh, and pour any juice into a small bowl. You should have around 1/4 cup of fresh pineapple juice total from the 2 fruits. Set your pineapple bowls aside.
• Remove and discard the tough center from the pineapple flesh. Dice the flesh into cubes and set it aside in a bowl.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of your oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add in the shrimp, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper if desired and saute for 3-5 minutes, or until pink and opaque. Set shrimp aside on a plate.
• Meanwhile, add all the sauce ingredients into a small bowl and whisk really well to combine.
• In that same preheated skillet, add the rest of the oil and cook your bell pepper together with the red onion for 3-4 minutes. Add in the garden peas and chopped pineapple flesh. Pour in your sauce mixture over the ingredients in the hot skillet. Let it simmer while gently stirring until it reduces a bit.
• Return the shrimp into your skillet, and cook for no more than 1 minute, just until the shrimp are heated through.
• Spoon your shrimp mixture into your pineapples, garnish with green onions and enjoy!

SWEET AND SPICY JERK SHRIMP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line two 10x15-inch baking pans with foil.
• Peel and devein shrimp, leaving tails intact if desired. Rinse shrimp and pat dry.
• Gently toss shrimp together with pineapple, bell peppers, red onion, jalapeno, oil, and jerk seasoning in a large bowl. Divide mixture between the prepared pans.
• Roast in the preheated oven until shrimp are opaque, about 15 minutes.
• Sprinkle with cilantro and serve with brown rice and lime wedges.

SHRIMP AND PINEAPPLE STIR-FRY

Steps:

• Whisk pineapple juice, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, sherry, and cornstarch together in a small bowl until well combined; set aside.
• Drizzle vegetable and sesame oils around the top of a wok or large skillet to coat the sides. Heat over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Pat shrimp dry with a paper towel and add to wok. Stir-fry for 1 minute on each side and transfer cooked shrimp to a clean plate.
• Add pineapple, red bell pepper, onion, and snow peas to the wok, and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and red pepper flakes, and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Return shrimp to the wok, and stir-fry an additional 2 minutes. Whisk stir-fry sauce a couple of times and pour over shrimp and vegetables, stirring constantly until thickened, about 1 minute.
• Serve immediately, garnished with scallions and sesame seeds.
