It's okay to have dessert -- in moderation. Here we jazzed up grilled pineapple with fresh mint and mini scoops of sorbet.

Ingredients

  • Vegetable oil, for grates or pan

  • 1 pineapple, peeled, cut crosswise into 4 thick slices, and cored

  • 2 tablespoons honey

  • teaspoon cayenne pepper

  • 1 cup coconut sorbet

  • ¼ cup torn fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Directions

  1. Heat grill or a grill pan to medium; lightly oil grates or pan. In a bowl, toss pineapple with honey and cayenne. Grill until light-brown grill marks appear, 10 to 15 minutes, turning once. Serve pineapple with sorbet; garnish with mint.

Cook's Notes

To peel the pineapple: Using a chef's knife, trim the top and bottom, remove the peel, and slice the fruit. Cut out the tough core with a paring knife.
