Baked Coconut Shrimp with Pineapple Sauce

Recipesfull introduces to you: Shrimp Recipes. (Baked Coconut Shrimp with Pineapple Sauce). I love the big succulent coconut shrimp found at a popular restaurant. Unfortunately, due to health reasons I can't indulge in that shrimp anymore. I created a recipe that satisfies my craving and tastes just as indulgent, but without the guilt! Can be served as an entree or as an appetizer.
