Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Step 2
Cut the pineapple into thick rings, about 1/2 inch thick.
Step 3
Brush the pineapple rings with olive oil on both sides to prevent sticking.
Step 4
Grill the pineapple slices for 2-3 minutes per side, or until grill marks appear and the fruit is slightly caramelized. Remove them from the grill and allow them to cool.
Step 5
Dice the grilled pineapple into bite-sized pieces and transfer to a large mixing bowl.
Step 6
Add the diced red bell pepper, chopped red onion, seeded and finely diced jalapenos, and chopped cilantro to the bowl with the pineapple.
Step 7
Grate the fresh ginger directly into the bowl and add the lime juice, salt, and black pepper.
Step 8
Gently stir all the ingredients together until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Step 9
Serve immediately as a dip with tortilla chips or as a topping for tacos, grilled chicken, or fish. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
