Diva In The Kitchen: Grilled Pineapple

 There is a restaurant that my friends have been to on occasion (and that I finally got to go to a few months back) that has this cinnamon-glazed, warm pineapple that is to die for!  I don't know what technique they used for cooking it so deliciously, but this recipe is a good, lower calorie stand-in.

This is another yummy one from Skinny Taste.




 Ingredients:

For the marinade:
  • 2 tbsp dark honey
  •  1 tsp olive oil
  •  1 tbsp fresh lime juice
  •  1 tsp ground cinnamon

  •  1 ripe pineapple, cut into half inch slices
Directions:
In a small bowl, combine the honey, olive oil, lime juice, and cinnamon and whisk to blend. Set aside.

Prepare a hot fire in a charcoal grill or heat a gas grill. Lightly coat the grill rack with cooking spray. Position the cooking rack 4 to 6 inches from the flame.
Lightly brush the pineapple with the marinade. Grill or broil, turning once and basting once or twice with the remaining marinade, until tender and golden, about 3-5 minutes on each side.

Serve warm.
