Grilled Pineapple Skewers with Coconut Flakes
Sweet and tangy pineapple chunks grilled and sprinkled with toasted coconut flakes for a delightful Kenyan-inspired snack.
Ingredients
- 1 medium Fresh Pineapple
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened Coconut Flakes
- 1 tablespoon Lime Juice
- 1 tablespoon Maple Syrup
Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.
Instructions
- 1Preheat your grill to medium heat, which is about 176.7-204.4°C (175-200°C).
- 2Prepare the 1 medium Fresh Pineapple by peeling and coring it. Cut the pineapple into 2.54 cm chunks.
- 3Thread the 2.54 cm pineapple chunks onto skewers, making sure they are snug but not too tight.
- 4In a small bowl, whisk together the 1 tablespoon Lime Juice and the 1 tablespoon Maple Syrup until well combined.
- 5Evenly brush the pineapple chunks on the skewers with the lime-maple mixture.
- 6Place the pineapple skewers on the preheated grill. Grill for 2-3 minutes per side, or until you see distinct grill marks and the pineapple looks slightly caramelized and softened.
- 7While the pineapple is grilling, place the 0.5 cup Unsweetened Coconut Flakes in a dry pan over medium heat. Toast the coconut flakes, stirring constantly, for 2-4 minutes until they turn golden brown and fragrant. Watch them very closely as they can burn quickly.
- 8Remove the pineapple skewers from the grill. Immediately sprinkle the toasted coconut flakes over the warm pineapple. Serve the grilled pineapple skewers right away.
