Instructions

Step 1: In a bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp honey, 2 tbsp lime juice, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper to make the glaze.
Step 2: Thread 1 lb large peeled and deveined shrimp alternately with 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks onto 6 soaked wooden skewers.
Step 3: Brush the shrimp and pineapple skewers generously with the glaze, reserving some for basting.
Step 4: Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Place skewers on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, basting with remaining glaze and turning until shrimp are opaque and pineapple is caramelized.
Step 5: Remove from grill and serve immediately, spooning any extra glaze over the top.
