Ingredients
- 1 large pineapple, peeled and cored
- 2 limes, zested and juiced (zest reserved for whipping cream)
- 2 tablespoons coconut rum
- 1 tablespoon dark agave syrup
- Pinch kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon dark agave syrup
- Reserved lime zest
- 8 to 10 mint leaves
- Dark agave syrup, for drizzling
Instructions
- For the pineapple: Slice the pineapple into 1-inch rounds and place in a large bowl.
- Mix together the lime juice, coconut rum, agave syrup and salt in a small bowl. Add the marinade to the pineapple and gently toss to coat. Cover and let marinate for at least 20 minutes.
- When ready, preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Brush the grill with the olive oil and grill the pineapple for about 3 minutes per side; there should be noticeable grill marks, but it should still be firm in texture. Remove to a serving platter.
- For the whipped cream: Meanwhile, in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, add the cream, agave syrup and the reserved lime zest. Whip until stiff peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes.
- To serve: Top the grilled pineapple with generous mounds of the whipped cream, scatter over mint leaves and drizzle with agave syrup.
Reviews
OMG!! This was very very delicious. The whipped lime topping gave this an elegant appearance. I do suggest using more lime zest. I grilled the pineapple rings the first time. I am using my grill basket for pineapple chunks tonight. Very good!!
Good
