Sweet Chili Thai & Pineapple Shrimp


 This one is as delicious as it sounds!


Ready? Here we go! 
* I have estimated some of these measures as we like our food really spicy and I added substantially more cayenne and black pepper.

3 cups of whole grain brown rice~ prepared as directed on pkg.
1 tbsp each: extra virgin olive oil & butter
325 g. frozen cooked, de-veined shrimp
3 cloves of garlic, chopped
1/2  each, medium sized red & yellow pepper sliced
2 tsp each ground black pepper and cayenne pepper
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 Medium whole pineapple cut into bite size pieces
1/ 4 cup sweet red chili Thai sauce

Thaw shrimp in a bowl of cold water, rinsing periodically.
In large pan, saute butter e.v.o.o,  garlic, peppers, spices, lemon juice and pineapple on medium  heat, stirring often. Juice from pineapple will start to thicken, about 8-10 minutes.
Drain shrimp and pat dry.
Add shrimp to pan and cook just until heated through.
Add Thai Chili Sauce, stir well until mixture heated.
Serve on Rice
Enjoy!
