- Now, for a few quick tips on cutting a pineapple.
- For the longest time I wasnt sure I would be able to cut a pineapple so I never bought one.
- But after I finally tried and discovered how easy it really is I buy them all summer long.
- First, cut off the top and bottom.
- Stand it upright and guide your knife along the side, almost like youre peeling an apple.
- Continue working around the whole pineapple, then go back and trim a little closer to remove any dark spots.
- Lay it on its side and slice it.
- Now for the real trick.
- Use an apple corer to remove the hard center.
- If you dont have one you can gently use a sharp paring knife, but I would encourage you to invest in the corer.
- Plus theyre really kind of fun to use.
- Put slices in with the remainder of the marinade and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the grill to 450-500 F.
- Remove chicken from the marinade.
- Grill chicken about 4 minutes on the first side, turn over each piece and pour remaining marinade over the chicken.
- Grill 4-5 minutes more and remove from grill.
- Do not overcook.
- Bring inside, squeeze a lime over the chicken and cover tightly with aluminum foil.
- THIS IS THE SECRET TO REALLY MOIST CHICKEN.
- Let it rest while you grill the pineapple.
- The pineapple wont take long to get nice grill marks.
- About 5-10 minutes depending on how hot your grill is.
- Arrange both the chicken and pineapple on a platter, sprinkle with chopped garlic chives for a bit of color and wait to hear how much they like it.
- I have to say, this might be my favorite chicken yet.
- Its moist and juicy with tons of flavor.
- I like each bite to have a bit of chicken and a piece of pineapple.
- It really does melt in your mouth.
- And if you have any left over, its good cold in the morning.
- (Trust me on this ...
- I just finished the last few bites.)
