Sautéed Pineapple with Rum Sauce image

Walnuts add a bitter, earthy element to this simple dessert-and a scoop of vanilla ice cream wouldn't hurt.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (3- to 4-pound) pineapple (labeled "extra sweet"), trimmed, peeled, and quartered lengthwise
5 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup walnuts (2 ounces), coarsely chopped
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons dark rum

Steps:

  • Cut off and discard core from pineapple quarters, then cut each quarter lengthwise into 5 pieces.
  • Heat 1/2 tablespoon butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until just melted, then add walnuts and cook, stirring, until a shade darker, about 2 minutes. Transfer walnuts with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain and wipe skillet clean.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon butter in skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then sauté one third of pineapple, turning over occasionally, until golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a platter. Sauté remaining pineapple in 2 batches in same manner, using 1 tablespoon butter per batch and transferring to platter.
  • While last batch of pineapple cooks, heat sugar, rum, and remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small heavy saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring, until sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Serve pineapple with sauce spooned on top and sprinkled with walnuts.

I've never been a big fan of pineapple, but this recipe changed my mind. The combination of the sweet pineapple, creamy sauce, and boozy rum is simply irresistible. I'll definitely be making this again and again.

I was skeptical about the rum sauce, but it turned out to be the star of the show. The pineapple was just a vessel for the delicious sauce. I could have eaten a whole bowl of it! ?
