Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Pineapple Chipotle Salsa
  1. Preheat your oven's broiler on high. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
  2. Arrange halved tomatillos, whole garlic cloves, onion slices, and patted dry pineapple rings evenly on the baking sheet. Broil for about 10 minutes, watching closely for a charred exterior.
  3. Carefully flip all ingredients for an even roast and broil for another 5 minutes until softened and aromatic.
  4. Transfer roasted ingredients to a blender or food processor. Add chipotle peppers and pulse until chunky, avoiding over-blending.
  5. Taste salsa and sprinkle kosher salt to enhance flavors, blending briefly if desired.
  6. Serve immediately or chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes to meld flavors.
