Ingredient Notes

Fresh Shrimp: Opt for jumbo shrimp for an indulgent brunch. • Pineapple: Adds a sweet and tangy flavor. • Bell Peppers: Provides crunch and color. • Jerk Seasoning: Gives a kick of Caribbean spice.

Start by marinating the shrimp in the jerk seasoning for a few minutes. Heat oil in a pan, add shrimp and stir-fry until they turn pink. Stir in bell peppers and pineapple, cook until slightly soft. Serve hot with a garnish of fresh herbs.

Things I’ve Learned

Remember not to overcook the shrimp as they can turn rubbery. Also, using a mix of red, green and yellow bell peppers can make the dish visually more appealing.
