Chef's Tips
For easier grilling, soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before threading the shrimp to prevent them from burning.
Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper and jalapeño to your desired level of spiciness.
The pineapple salsa can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
