1 Pineapple
1 Lime; juice of
1 ts Chipotle powder
1/2 ts Cayenne powder; omit for
-less heat
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, foil, or a silicone mat.
Slice off the leafy top from the pineapple. Use a sharp knife to
slice away the outer peel. Slice the pineapple into 1" slices, core
and all. Chop the slices into bite-sized pieces.
Arrange the pineapple on the baking sheet. Freeze 2 hours or until
frozen solid.
Put the frozen pineapple chunks into a high power blender or food
processor. Add the lime juice and spices. Process until completely
smooth, scraping down the sides of the machine as necessary.
Serve right away for a slushy, soft-serve consistency, otherwise,
spoon the mixture into a loaf pan and put in the freezer to firm up
at least 4 hours.
Scoop and enjoy, garnished with fresh mint and a sprinkle of chile
powder.
