Grilled Pineapple Salsa || with Mahi Mahi Lettuce Wraps
Grilling fruit caramelizes its natural sugars and brings out a new level of sweetness. This fresh, easy-to-make salsa is delicious in many ways:
- Spoon over fish tacos
- Serve with glazed chicken wings
- Pile on warmed Brie or Camembert-style cheeses
- With tortilla chips (sweet or savory)
- As an accompaniment to seared scallops
- Garnish grilled salmon
Sigona’s spicy Baklouti green chili infused olive oil is perfectly potent, in terms of spiciness, so just a 1/2 tablespoon will add the right amount of heat and flavor to this salsa. The coconut balsamic balances it all out, adding a little zip to each bite. Makes about 4 to 5 cups.
