Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh pineapple
- 0.5 cup red bell pepper
- 0.25 cup red onion
- 1 whole jalapeño
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 whole lime
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Start by preparing the fresh ingredients. Finely dice the fresh pineapple to get approximately 1 cup. Place it into a medium-sized bowl.
Dice the red bell pepper and red onion into small, uniform pieces. Add them to the bowl with the pineapple.
For the jalapeño, slice it in half and remove the seeds and membranes if you prefer a milder salsa. Finely chop the jalapeño and add it to the bowl.
Roughly chop the fresh cilantro leaves and stir them into the mixture.
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice over the pineapple mixture, being careful to avoid seeds.
Add sea salt and black pepper to taste, and gently toss all the ingredients together until well combined.
Taste the salsa and adjust the seasoning or lime juice according to your preference.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This salsa pairs well with grilled chicken, fish, or as a dip with low-carb tortilla chips.
