A delightful twist on a classic pineapple compote, enhanced with a touch of cinnamon and lime for a burst of flavor.
Heat the butter in a sauté pan over medium heat until melted.
Ensure the butter doesn't brown too much; you want it just melted.
Add the pineapple chunks to the pan and sprinkle with the brown sugar and cinnamon.
Spread the pineapple evenly in the pan for uniform caramelization.
Cook the pineapple mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the pineapple is caramelized, about 5 minutes.
Keep an eye on the pan to prevent burning; adjust heat if necessary.
Remove from heat and zest the lime over the pineapple. Squeeze the lime juice into the mixture and stir.
The lime adds a fresh, tangy contrast to the sweetness of the caramelized pineapple.
Serve warm as a topping or dessert, and enjoy!
Pair with vanilla ice cream or yogurt for a delightful treat.
