Ingredients
- 1 whole (peeled, cored, and cut into rings) Pineapple, fresh
- 2 whole (peeled, pitted, and diced) Avocado, ripe
- 0.5 cup (finely diced) Red onion
- 0.25 cup (chopped) Cilantro, fresh
- 1 whole (seeded and minced) Jalapeño
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice, freshly squeezed
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Step 2
Lightly brush the pineapple rings with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Step 3
Grill the pineapple rings for 3-4 minutes per side, or until grill marks form and the pineapple is slightly caramelized. Remove from the grill and let cool.
Step 4
Once the pineapple is cool enough to handle, dice it into small bite-sized pieces and transfer to a large mixing bowl.
Step 5
Add the diced avocado, red onion, chopped cilantro, and minced jalapeño to the bowl with the pineapple.
Step 6
Drizzle the salsa mixture with lime juice and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Gently toss the ingredients together to combine. Be careful not to mash the avocado.
Step 7
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more lime juice, salt, or pepper if needed.
Step 8
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, or as a topping for tacos, grilled chicken, or fish. For best flavor, consume within the same day.
