  1. For Marinade: In large bowl, mix together lime juice, cumin, sugar and salt. Place shrimp in large bowl of marinade, turn to evenly coat. Set aside on counter for 20 minutes.
  2. For Kabobs: Using skewers create kabob by threading shrimp, pineapple and onion. Alternate between shrimp, pineapple and onion, creating even skewers until all pieces are used. Season with salt to taste. (Tip: If using wooden skewers, soak in cold water for at least 1 hour before use to prevent burning.)
  3. Set clean, well-oiled grill to high heat, when grill is hot, place kabobs on grill using tongs. Cook 2 minutes. Using tongs, flip kabobs and cook 2 minutes or just until shrimp turn from translucent to white. (Tip: Shrimp cook quickly; to avoid overcooking, make sure grill is very hot before placing kabobs on grill.)
  4. Remove kabobs from grill using tongs and place on platter. Garnish with cilantro, as desired. Be sure to remove all ingredients from skewers before eating.
  5. Serve with BUSH’S Black Bean Fiesta Grillin’ Beans.
  6. For Optional Spicy Jalapeño Sauce: Set clean, well-oiled grill to high heat. When grill is hot, using tongs, place green onions on grill. Cook until evenly charred, about 2-3 minutes, turning as necessary.
  7. Remove green onions from grill and place in food processor or blender. Add jalapeño, garlic, cilantro, salt, lime juice and water. Puree until smooth and set aside.
  8. Use spoon to drizzle Spicy Jalapeño Sauce over shrimp and serve remaining sauce side, as desired.
