  • Shrimp Heat stove to medium. In large skillet, add orange juice and shrimp in a single layer, sprinkle chile powder over shrimp. Cook 2-3 minutes, just until shrimp changes color, flip shrimp and cook another minute or two. Remove from heat.
  • Warm tortillas in 325° F oven for 10 minutes or on grill to soften.

White or yellow onion can be substituted for red onion.

If you run out of shrimp, spoon pineapple salsa over other types of fish, pork or chicken.
