Rum Infused Grilled Pineapple Recipes

RUM-INFUSED GRILLED PINEAPPLE

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium high.
• Peel pineapple and cut crosswise into 6 slices.
• In a small bowl, mix rum and sugar.
• Place pineapple in a bowl and drizzle the rum/sugar over the slices.
• Stir well so every piece gets coated (may let stand for 3-5 minutes, to absorb flavors.).
• On a medium hot grill, place the slices for about 5-8 minutes, turning once. Remember to watch closely since the sugars can burn and become overly charred.
• Top with your favorite Ice cream and some whipped topping. (or fresh whipped cream!).

EASY (& FLAMELESS!) PINEAPPLE FOSTER

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together rum, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Then in a glass baking dish (or other container), lay out the pineapple rings and pour the rum mixture over them. Toss to coat, then let soak for at least 15 minutes, flipping the pineapple midway through.
• When you are ready to cook the pineapple, strain out the extra rum sauce from the pan of pineapple, and transfer it to a small saucepan. Bring the sauce to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for about 6-8 minutes, or until reduced by half. Set aside.
• While the sauce is cooking, heat a grill pan or saute pan over medium-high heat until hot. Lightly grease the pan with cooking spray. Add pineapple slices in an even layer (you may need to do this in multiple batches) and cook for 1-2 minutes per side until browned and grill marks appear. Transfer to a serving plates, and set aside. Repeat with remaining pineapple.
• Top each pineapple ring with a scoop of ice cream and drizzle with rum sauce. (If desired, you can also lightly dust the pineapple with some extra cinnamon.) Serve immediately.

GRILLED MAHI-MAHI WITH PINEAPPLE RUM GLAZE

Steps:

• In a saucepot over medium heat, add the butter, red onion, shallots and garlic. Cook for 3 minutes until the onions are soft, but not brown. Add the grilled pineapple, honey, dark rum, pineapple juice and green onions. Bring to a boil, remove from heat and set aside.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Preheat grill to medium high.
• Place the Mahi-mahi on a flat surface and rub with seasoning, pressing the spice gently into the meat. Brush lightly with olive oil. Grill for three to four minutes per side, glazing liberally with pineapple glazing syrup until the fish is just cooked through, tender and flakes lightly.
