Spicy Pineapple
Salsa


We are not sure if you are familiar with the combination of pineapple and piquant... but in this recipe you will discover that it is an exquisite combination.

The spicy pineapple salsa is similar to the
pico de gallo but without the use of the tomato. This means that you will find many fresh ingredients cut into small chunks , which are dressed with salt and lime juice.

As it can be imagined the salsa is super fresh and its flavor is contrasting because many different ingredients are used in its preparation. It is the ideal accompaniment of some good
tacos al pastor but it can also be used in some achiote shrimp brochettes or with a tasty chicken adobo.



About the Recipe

  • In this recipe you are only going to cut and mix, we are sure that you can prepare it.
