The most common way to eat a pineapple is as a plain cut-up fruit. Pineapple is sweet, juicy and refreshing and tastes wonderful as it is. However, if you are craving something different, trying this new way of serving pineapple – the pan-fried pineapple.
The pineapple chunks are simply fried on a non-stick frying pan. No extra seasoning is needed since the pineapple itself is so full of flavor. The sugar in pineapple caramelizes as it cooks, giving it a brownish color and bringing out a unique caramelized taste. Pan-fried pineapple is sweet, sour and savory at the same time – what a burst of flavor!
Pan-fried pineapple is great served warm, right after it is cooked. It can also be refrigerated and re-warmed in a microwave to be served later. Pan-fried pineapple is great as a side dish accompaniment to chicken breast, pork or fish.

I will make tonight for dinner with a small filet of Halibut and a small tenderloin. Thought I would add a bit of sweet say sauce to the butter fried pineapple, and have rice and asparagus. The idea of adding vanilla sounds like yummy over vanilla ice cream.
This almost sounds like a yummy dessert!
it is. I added a small ,tiny amount of vanilla extract
