Spicy Sweet Grilled Pineapple Rings

Meat on the grill takes caveman like simplicity to prep yet seems to deliver so much flavor. If you have enough salt & pepper on your chicken or steak plus a little olive oil you're going to win every time.  Top simply prepared meat with these equally simple spicy sweet rings of pineapple & you'll think you're ready for the grilling version of Chopped.

Ingredients
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 4 3/4-inch-thick pineapple rings
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1/4cup thinly sliced basil

Make it! (recipe from Rachel Ray Everday)
  1. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the sugar and chili powder.
  3. If you don't have a pre-cored pineapple cut your rings & punch out the core with a cookie cutter, or keep the core in they have surprising nutritious values. (If your rings break apart they will still taste good, so don't sweat it!)
  4. Brush the pineapple and steaks with 1 tbsp. olive oil.
  5. Sprinkle the pineapple with the chili sugar and season the steaks.
  6. Grill the pineapple, 2 minutes per side.
  7. Transfer to a plate and tent with foil until ready to serve.
  8. Serve meat stacked with pineapple rings & sprinkle with basil.
