Ingredients:

2 T sugar
2 T canola or olive oil
2 T lime juice
1 T soy sauce
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 dash hot pepper sauce
1 pineapple
1 sweet red pepper
1/3 cup red onions, diced

In a small saucepan, heat sugar, oil, lime juice, soy sauce, garlic and hot pepper sauce over medium heat, stirring occasionally, just until sugar is dissolved. Let cool completely.

With a sharp knife, cut off crown and base of pineapple; cut off skin. With tip of knife, remove pineapple eyes; cut pineapple crosswise into 1/2-inch thick slices. Place on greased grill over medium heat; close lid and cook, turning once for 20 to 30 minutes or until tender and browned. Let cool.

Cut each slice into quarters, trimming off core; place in large bowl. Add dressing, red pepper, onion, coriander and mint; toss to coat well. (Salad can be covered and refrigerated for up to 8 hours; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.).
