Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Shrimp

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add zucchini and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add diced pineapple and sauté for an additional 3 minutes.

    Cook the Shrimp

    Add the marinated shrimp to the skillet and cook until they turn pink, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the butter and heavy cream, cooking until the sauce thickens slightly.

    Serve

    In a serving dish, place cooked Mexican rice at the bottom. Pour the shrimp and sauce mixture over the rice. Top with cheese dip and garnish with chopped cilantro. Serve warm.
