Just before using salsa, add 2 Tbsp. minced cilantro, adjust seasonings and stir well. Grill or broil chicken on both sides until just cooked through (do not overcook), about 6 min. per side, depending on heat of grill and thickness of chicken. Serve hot or at room temperature, topped with pineapple salsa, evenly divided. Garnish with remaining 2 Tbsp. cilantro and lime wedges. 318 calories per serving *I got this recipe out of the LA Times. It works best if you follow the directions and freeze the chicken as directed; I have tried making it all on the same day and it is not the same.
Tips:
- Use ripe pineapple: The riper the pineapple, the sweeter and more flavorful your salsa will be. Look for pineapples that are golden yellow in color and have a slightly soft, fragrant flesh.
- Choose the right tomatoes: Roma tomatoes are a good choice for salsa because they are firm and have fewer seeds. However, you can use any type of tomatoes you like.
- Chop the ingredients evenly: This will help to ensure that the salsa is evenly mixed and has a consistent texture.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro and mint, will add a lot of flavor to your salsa. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but they will not be as flavorful.
- Adjust the spiciness to your liking: If you like spicy salsa, add more jalapeno peppers. If you prefer a milder salsa, remove the seeds from the jalapeno peppers before chopping them.
Conclusion:
Caribbean pineapple salsa is a refreshing and flavorful salsa that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be used as a dip for chips, tacos, or burritos. It is also a great way to add some tropical flair to your next party or gathering.
