Red Lobster has a pineapple dip for their shrimp and I'm trying to find a recipe that matches it. Anyone know what I'm talkin about? And if this is a copy of one that I have somewhere else, so sorry, I posted it and it came back as an error and when I went to search to see if it went through, I couldn't find it

Do you mean the pina colada sauce?

Google -- copycat recipe "Red Lobster" "pina colada" shrimp sauce

You'll get a number of recipes for it that way

WOOHOO, thank you, the niece said that's it.
 
For anyone else wanting this, here is the one that I found.


Coconut Shrimp



Hope it's not too late to post this...it's my favorite!

From Cuisine at Home

31 ct shrimp (or slightly less) with tails on/ peeled ( this easily covers 14 shrimp or so)

Dredge:
1/2 C cornstarch
1 t Kosher salt
1/4 t Cayenne (more if you're very bold)

Wash:
2 egg whites
1/4 C water - whisked together

Coating:
1 1/2 C shredded unsweetened coconut
3/4 C Panko bread crumbs
1 t Kosher salt

After cleaning shrimp dredge in first mixture, then put through the "wash" and roll in the coating. While it can be sauteed in a frying pan I prefer to deep fry them in batches.

Dipping sauce:

2 C red bell peppers seeded and chopped
1 C sugar
1/2 C white wine vinegar
2 t curshed red pepper flakes
2 t fresh ginger, chopped fine or grated
salt to taste.

1 T cornstarch
1 T water

Simmer first 5 ingredients in saucepan over medium-hi heat for 4 - 5 minutes; season w/ salt to taste and puree (I use an imersion blender).

Add cornstarch/water combo and simmer till thickened (about 2 minutes) chill before serving.

CAUTION This recipe is addictive...highly addictive - and can lead to pleading and whining from friends and family.
