Ingredients

  1. 1/2 small pineapple, peeled, cored and sliced into 1/2-inch-thick rings
  2. 1 red bell pepper
  3. 1 tablespoon canola oil
  4. 1/2 small jicama, peeled and finely diced
  5. 1 small red onion, finely chopped
  6. 2 red chile peppers (such as Thai bird or Fresno), stemmed and finely diced
  7. 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
  8. 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  9. 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil

Instructions

  1. Preheat a grill to high. Brush the pineapple and bell pepper with canola oil; grill, turning, until the pineapple is golden brown on both sides and the pepper is slightly charred, about 6 minutes.

Fabulous. Put this on top of grilled pork tenderloin, everyone loved it.

Very good. The sweetness of the grilled pineapple is cut by the jicama, roasted pepper and basil. Hand-cut chunky style is perfect for pork or seafood tacos. I would probably cut it much finer in the food processor for chips and salsa .
