Notes
This sauce not only complements shrimp but also pairs well with other seafood, grilled chicken, or even as a dressing for tropical salads.
For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a splash of your favorite hot sauce.
The sauce can be prepared a day in advance and kept refrigerated until you're ready to serve.
If you have leftover sauce, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
You can use either canned or fresh crushed pineapple, depending on your preference.
