Main Ingredients
  • 1 whole pineapple ripe, peeled, and sliced into 1-inch rings

Equipment

  • Grill
  • Tongs
  • Knife (for slicing)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Grilling the Pineapple
  1. Place the pineapple slices directly on the preheated grill. Grill for 3-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and tender with clear grill marks. Flip carefully to ensure even cooking.
Serving
  1. Remove the grilled pineapple from the grill. Serve warm as a dessert or a refreshing side. Optionally, sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon or a drizzle of honey for extra flavor.
Storage
  1. Store any leftover grilled pineapple in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a pan or microwave if desired.

Notes

For an extra treat, serve grilled pineapple with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of coconut cream.
