  • Neutral oil (pantry) 2 tbsp
  • Ground cumin (pantry) 1/2 tsp
  • Kosher salt + black pepper (pantry) to taste

Instructions

  1. Prep grill: heat grill to medium-high. Clean and oil grates.
  2. Prep broccoli: cut 1 broccoli bunch into medium florets (about 10–12 oz). Toss with 1 tbsp neutral oil, 1/2 tsp kosher salt, and black pepper.
  3. Make pineapple salsa: dice ~1 1/2 cups pineapple. Mix with 2 tbsp finely diced sweet onion, 1/3 cup chopped cilantro, juice of 1 lime, 1 tbsp diced garlic, and minced jalapeño (optional). Add a pinch of salt. Set aside.
  4. Season shrimp: if using the 12 oz cooked peeled shrimp, pat dry. Toss with 1 tbsp neutral oil, 1/2 tsp cumin, 1/2 tsp salt, black pepper, and juice of 1 lime.
  5. Grill broccoli: grill broccoli in a grill basket or on foil 6–10 minutes total, tossing once, until charred-tender.
  6. Grill shrimp: grill shrimp quickly 1–2 minutes per side just to pick up grill marks and heat through (don’t overcook since they’re already cooked).
  7. Serve: pile grilled broccoli and shrimp on plates and spoon pineapple-lime salsa over the top. Add extra lime wedges from the second lime.

Health notes: ~500–700 kcal per serving (depends on added oil/avocado). High protein, lots of micronutrients; keep added oil modest for a lighter dinner.

Drink pairing: Lean, citrusy seafood wants crisp whites or a zesty rosé. Wine styles (pick 1): - Sauvignon Blanc (lime + herbs) - Dry Rosé (bright and food-friendly) - Grüner Veltliner (peppery, citrusy) Local-ish bottle tip: a Texas-grown Blanc du Bois (often made in TX wineries) can be a fun local white with tropical notes.
