Grilled Tequila Cilantro Pineapple Recipes

GRILLED PINEAPPLE WITH CILANTRO

Steps:

• Stir in a big bowl all the ingredients until ginger together.-.
• Transfer in a flat baking mold in order to have only one layer pineapple crunches.
• Top with sugar.
• Broil until pineapple is caramelized.
• Top with remaining fresh cilantro and serve hot or chilled.
• Note: I've never tried this recipe with canned pineapple and canned roasted peppers. I suppose that this would work as well too. In any case I'm sure that the fresh ones are better! If you try, please let me know!

GRILLED TEQUILA LIME PINEAPPLE CHUNKS

Steps:

• Soak 1 dozen small bamboo skewers in cold water. Cut off top and bottom poles of pineapple. Stand it upright on the cutting board and cut off rind, using a sharp knife and smooth downward motions. Remove any remaining eyes with the tip of a paring knife. Cut in quarters lengthwise and cut out and discard woody core. Cut flesh into 1 or 1 1/2-inch chunks.
• In a medium bowl, combine tequila, lime juice and sugar. Add pineapple chunks and toss to coat. Let marinate 30 minutes at room temperature. Preheat grill to medium high. Drain pineapple chunks and divide among skewers. Brush grill well, wipe with oiled paper towel and place skewers on grill at an angle. Cook a total of 68 minutes, turning frequently, until outside is lightly caramelized. Remove from grill, let cool slightly and serve 2 skewers in each bowl of Watermelon Granita.

GRILLED TEQUILA-CILANTRO PINEAPPLE

Steps:

• Cut the pineapple lengthwise into 8 wedges. Place the wedges into a sealable plastic container or sealable plastic bag. In a small bowl, stir together the cilantro, tequila and chipotle. Pour into the container with the pineapple. Cut lemon and lime in half, squeeze out some juice and put the juice and fruit into the container. Season with salt and pepper. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least one hour, turning pineapple once.
• Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat. When the coals are hot, brush a light coating of oil on the grate.
• Grill wedges for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side. If you like you can make a sauce by cooking the marinade in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and cook until the sauce is thick and syrupy. It will be very spicy!
