Grilled Pineapple Salad
Description: Great with grilled meats or used as a cooling "salsa" for Mexican food. It's also really good as a side for Thai dishes. Prep time does not include cleaning a pineapple.
Ingredients:
- 3 cups fresh pineapple, cored and cleaned
- salt
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh green onion, diced
- 1 lime
Steps:
- Either buy a whole pineapple at the store and clean it, or buy it pre-cleaned in spears. Sprinkle with salt before grilling.
- Grill the pineapple on direct heat for 2-3 minutes per side. You want it to have grill marks and be a bit soft, but not go squishy or black.
- Chop the pineapple into small bite-sized pieces. Add the chopped cilantro and green onions. Squeeze the lime juice over the salad. Toss.
