Calories: 49kcal
Ingredients
- ½ pineapple peeled and cut into ½ inch slices
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil for grilling
- 2 vine tomatoes stem removed and diced
- 1 jalapeno finely diced
- ½ small red onion diced
- 1 lime cut in half
- ¼ cup cilantro finely chopped
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Heat an outdoor grill or grill pan to high and brush oil onto the pineapple slices.
- Grill the pineapple slices on both sides, until the edges are slightly darkened and charred, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Once the pineapple is grilled, remove it to a cutting board and chop the grilled pineapple into a small dice.
- Add the chopped pineapple to a bowl, along with the chopped tomato, jalapeño, red onion and cilantro.
- Add lime juice and salt and mix the pineapple pico de gallo ingredients together until combined.
- If you have the time, place the pico de gallo in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes, then serve with tortilla chips or your favorite tacos.
Notes
- For extra smoky flavor, grill the lime and then squeeze the grilled lime juice into the pineapple pico de gallo.
- When picking a pineapple, look for one that has a deep yellow color and smells fragrant, which will be a sweeter pineapple. Green pineapples are not fully ripe yet.
- If you prefer less heat, remove the seeds from the jalapeño.
- Pineapple pico de gallo will last up to 4 days in the refrigerator.
