Instructions

Step 1: Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Brush 1 medium peeled pineapple sliced into 1/2-inch rings lightly on both sides with 1 tbsp vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
Step 2: In a small bowl, mix together 2 tbsp granulated sugar and 1 tsp chili powder to create the chili sugar blend.
Step 3: Grill pineapple slices for 3-4 minutes per side until grill marks appear and edges caramelize.
Step 4: Remove pineapple from grill and immediately brush each slice with 3 tbsp honey mixed with 2 tbsp fresh lime juice to add brightness and sweetness.
Step 5: Sprinkle the chili sugar evenly over the warm pineapple slices for a spicy-sweet finish. Serve warm as a refreshing dessert or side.
