Caramelized Pineapple Topping
This is no humdrum syrupy-sweet pineapple sauce -- it's a game-changer, with toasted coconut, lime zest and juice, brown sugar, nutmeg and butter enveloping the skillet-browned fruit.
Ingredients
Directions
-
In a large skillet, toast coconut over medium heat until browned; remove from skillet. Add butter to skillet. When melted, add pineapple. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally until juices are evaporated and pineapple is nicely browned. (This will take about 15 minutes.) Stir in toasted coconut, brown sugar, lime peel, lime juice, and nutmeg. Serve warm or cooled.
