Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, 1 tablespoon lime juice, 2 minced garlic cloves, chili powder, 1 teaspoon turmeric powder, cumin, and ½ teaspoon salt.

Step 2: In a large bowl or resealable bag, combine shrimp, 2 cups red onion cut into 1″ cubes, 1-2 small zucchini slices, 1 red bell pepper sliced into cubes, and 2 cups pineapple chunks. Pour the marinade over the mixture and gently toss to coat. Refrigerate for 15 minutes.

Step 3: In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups diced pineapple, ¼ cup diced red onion, ¼ cup diced red bell pepper, chopped cilantro, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon turmeric powder, and a pinch of red pepper flakes (optional). Add the juice of 1 lime and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Toss well and set aside.

Step 4: Thread the marinated shrimp, veggies, and pineapple onto skewers, alternating the ingredients. This recipe makes about 10–12 skewers.

Step 5: Preheat the grill over medium heat. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 3–5 minutes per side, or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.

Step 6: Serve the skewers with the Pineapple Turmeric Salsa on the side. Garnish with fresh cilantro and lime wedges, and sprinkle with additional salt, pepper, or red pepper flakes if desired.
