Method

  1. Step 1

    Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the sugar and cook, stirring, for 2-3 mins or until the sugar dissolves. Carefully stir in the orange juice. Add the chilli powder, salt, pepper and cloves. Stir to combine. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 4-5 mins or until the glaze thickens slightly. Remove from heat. Stir in the lime juice. Set aside to cool slightly.
  2. Step 2

    Use a large sharp knife to cut the pineapple lengthways into 8 wedges and remove the core. Insert a soaked bamboo skewer into each wedge. Place the pineapple on a baking tray. Pour over two-thirds of the glaze and turn to coat.
  3. Step 3

    Heat a barbecue grill or chargrill on medium. Cook the pineapple on the grill, brushing occasionally with some of the remaining glaze, for 3-5 mins each side or until golden.
  4. Step 4

    Arrange the pineapple on a serving platter. Drizzle with the remaining glaze and sprinkle with the coconut. Serve immediately with ice cream.
