Grilled Pineapple

I love to throw pinapple on the grill when we barbecue.This is how I prepare it:
  1. Cut off top and bottom, work your way down, cutting off slices of peel. Cut in half, then into 4 spears (8 total).
  2. Zest 1 lime (reserve) then squeeze juice on pineapple spears, grill, then drizzle with a little bit of honey. Sprinkle with lime zest.

I often serve this with my teriyaki chicken:

  1. Marinate 4 chicken breasts in a large baggie with 1/3 c. bottled teriyaki sauce, 1/4 c. vegetable oil, and a palmful of grill seasoning.
  2. After marination, grill.

When I use my grill pan inside, I grill the pinapple first, then grill the chicken afterwards to get some of the pineapple flavoring.

I serve this with sides of rice and bok choy.
