Description

This refreshing pineapple salsa combines sweet and tangy flavors, making it a perfect pairing for a glass of Pinot Grigio. Serve it in a hollowed-out pineapple for a fun and tropical presentation.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 whole pineapple
  • 1 cup diced sweet peppers
  • 1 (12 oz) tub of pico de gallo
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice
  • Cilantro, chopped
  • Salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Lay the pineapple on its side and cut off the top third, keeping the stem intact. Ensure you don’t cut lower than the stem.
  2. Hollow out the middle of the pineapple, being careful to preserve the outer shell for serving. It’s okay if some of the pineapple gets crushed during this process.
  3. Dice the extracted pineapple flesh into small pieces.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the diced pineapple, diced sweet peppers, pico de gallo, lime juice, and chopped cilantro.
  5. Season the salsa with salt to taste, mixing well to combine all ingredients.
  6. Spoon the salsa back into the hollowed-out pineapple shell for a fun presentation.
  7. Serve immediately with tortilla chips or as a topping for grilled meats.

Notes

For a spicier salsa, add diced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce. This salsa is best served fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Pair with Cavit Pinot Grigio for a delightful combination.
