• 1/2 c. coconut milk
  
• 2 garlic cloves, minced finely
  
• 1/2 lime, juiced
  
• 2 tbsp. olive oil

• 2 dried chilies
  
• 1 tbsp. coconut oil
  
• salt and pepper
  

Pineapple Coleslaw

• 1 bag red cabbage, shredded
  
• 1/2 fresh pineapple, skin off, cored, and diced 1/4"
  
• 1 c. sour cream
  
• 1/2. c. rice wine vinegar
  
• 1/2 c. fresh cilantro, chopped fine
  
• 1 tbsp. honey
  
• salt
  

Coconut Rice

• 1 c. basmati rice

1. Start by marinating the shrimp. Put all of the marinated shrimp ingredients in a bowl and mix thoroughly until all shrimp are evenly coated. Cover the bowl and place in the fridge for 20 min.
   
2. Next make the coleslaw. Mix all of the pineapple coleslaw ingredients in a bowl and mix thoroughly until evenly distributed. Cover and place in the fridge for 20 min.
   
3. Make the rice. Start by placing the basmati rice in a strainer and rinse under water until the water becomes clear and the outside is not starchy. Set aside.
   
4. Place a sauce pot on high heat and pour the water, coconut milk, and rice in the pot. Once the rice starts to boil, turn the heat down to low, and place a cover on the pot. Let the rice simmer for about 15 min or until fluffy and tender. Season with salt and set aside.
   
5. Place a pan on medium heat and put the coconut oil in the pan. Once the coconut oil has melted and the pan is hot place the marinated shrimp in the pan. Saute for about 2 min on one side and then flip. Cook for another 2 min then set aside (if you keep the shells on cook for another minute longer).
   
6. Place the cooked rice in a serving bowl. Add the shrimp. Add the coleslaw. Add the garnish. Then enjoy your delicious creation!
