Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pineapple

    Cut the pineapple into thick slices and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels, then crumble into pieces.

  3. 3

    Caramelize the Onions

    In the same skillet with bacon drippings, add olive oil and sliced onions. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden and caramelized, about 15-20 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper.

  4. 4

    Grill the Pineapple

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Sprinkle brown sugar on both sides of the pineapple slices. Grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until grill marks appear and the sugar caramelizes.

  5. 5

    Assemble and Serve

    Place the grilled pineapple on a serving platter. Top with caramelized onions and crumbled bacon. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and serve warm.
