Shakespeare does not use those exact words, but here are some similar uses.
Thou shalt be whipp'd with wire, and stew'd in brine,
Smarting in lingering pickle. (Antony and Cleopatra, II, 5)
How camest thou in this pickle? (The Tempest, V, 1)
I have been in such a pickle since I
saw you last that, I fear me, will never out of
my bones (The Tempest, V, 1)
In the quotation from Antony and Cleopatra, the "pickle" is the same as "brine", salty water which aids preservation of vegetables etc. In the quotations from The Tempest, the idea is that Trinculo is "pickled", which is to say, drunk. The same implication is given in Twelfth Night, when Sir Toby says "A plague o' these pickled herring." The idea is that it is Sir Toby and not the herring that is pickled.
Shakespeare does not use the phrase in the sense of being in trouble or a tricky situation.

Where did the slang in a pickle come from?
The slang phrase "in a pickle" originates from the early 17th century, with its first recorded use attributed to William Shakespeare in his play "The Tempest." It refers to being in a difficult or troublesome situation, likening it to being preserved in a pickle jar. The phrase may also derive from the idea of being "pickled" or trapped, as one would be unable to escape from a jar of brine. Over time, it evolved into the idiomatic expression we use today.
