Ingredients
– 1 ripe pineapple
– 2 tablespoons brown sugar
– 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
– 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
– 2 tablespoons lime juice (optional)
– Pinch of salt
Instructions
Creating perfectly grilled pineapple is straightforward when you follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Pineapple: Start by cutting off the top and bottom of the pineapple. Stand it upright and slice down the sides to remove the skin. Cut the pineapple into thick slices or wedges, depending on your preference.
2. Make the Glaze (if desired): In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, lime juice, and a pinch of salt. If you like, add honey to enhance the sweetness.
3. Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium heat. If using a grill pan, preheat it on the stovetop.
4. Coat the Pineapple: Brush the pineapple slices with the sugar mixture on both sides. Make sure to coat them well for maximum flavor.
5. Grill the Pineapple: Place the pineapple slices on the grill. Grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until you see lovely grill marks and the pineapple is caramelized.
6. Serve: Remove the grilled pineapple from the grill and let it cool slightly before serving.
7. Add Extra Touch (optional): For an extra touch, drizzle with more honey or lime juice before plating.
By following these easy steps, you’ll have perfectly grilled pineapple that looks as good as it tastes!
