Grilled Pineapple with Chile and Lime (Gluten-Free)

Celiac.com 07/14/2023 - Grilling pineapple takes this tropical fruit to a whole new level. The heat of the grill caramelizes the sugars, intensifying its natural sweetness, and creating a slightly charred and smoky flavor. To elevate the flavor profile even further, we add a touch of spice with chili powder. This subtle heat enhances the sweetness of the pineapple, adding a delightful kick that lingers on your taste buds. Don't worry, it's not overwhelmingly spicy, but rather a gentle heat, that adds depth and complexity to each mouthwatering bite.

Ingredients:

• 1 fresh pineapple
• 3 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon honey or agave nectar
• 1½ teaspoons chili powder
• Dash salt
