FAQs
Can I make Sweet Chili Pineapple Shrimp RecipeMain ahead of time?
Yes – you can mix the sauce up to 3 days in advance and keep it refrigerated.
What’s the best substitute for fresh pineapple?
Canned pineapple chunks (drained) work fine; just choose one packed in juice, not syrup.
How do I store leftovers?
Cool the dish, then place it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Why did my shrimp turn out rubbery?
Overcooking is the cause. Shrimp cook in 4‑5 minutes total; remove them as soon as they turn pink and opaque.
