Sautéed Pineapple with Rum Sauce image

Walnuts add a bitter, earthy element to this simple dessert-and a scoop of vanilla ice cream wouldn't hurt.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (3- to 4-pound) pineapple (labeled "extra sweet"), trimmed, peeled, and quartered lengthwise
5 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup walnuts (2 ounces), coarsely chopped
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons dark rum

Steps:

  • Cut off and discard core from pineapple quarters, then cut each quarter lengthwise into 5 pieces.
  • Heat 1/2 tablespoon butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until just melted, then add walnuts and cook, stirring, until a shade darker, about 2 minutes. Transfer walnuts with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain and wipe skillet clean.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon butter in skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then sauté one third of pineapple, turning over occasionally, until golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a platter. Sauté remaining pineapple in 2 batches in same manner, using 1 tablespoon butter per batch and transferring to platter.
  • While last batch of pineapple cooks, heat sugar, rum, and remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small heavy saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring, until sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Serve pineapple with sauce spooned on top and sprinkled with walnuts.

I had some trouble finding fresh pineapple, so I used canned pineapple instead. It still turned out great!

I found the rum sauce to be a bit overpowering. Next time I'll use less rum.
