Homemade Pineapple Salsa Recipe
This fire-roasted homemade pineapple salsa recipe is delicious and goes amazingly well on pork, chicken, steak, fish, and tortilla chips.

- 1/3 cup pineapple juice
- Juice of 1 lime
- ¼ cup packed fresh cilantro
- coarse salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to high heat (450° to 550°).
