Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a delicious and unexpected dish that combines sweet and savory flavors in a fun and unique way. These Caramelized Pineapple and Bacon Tacos are perfect for a summer get-together or a weeknight meal that will surprise your taste buds. So, let’s get started!

Ingredients:

• 6 pineapple slices (approx. 300g)
• 8 bacon strips (approx. 200g)
• 6 small flour tortillas
• 2 tbsp brown sugar
• 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
• Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Kitchen Tools:

• skillet
• tongs
• knife
• cutting board
• spatula
• mixing bowl

To start, heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set it aside on a paper towel to drain. In the same skillet, add the olive oil and pineapple slices. Sprinkle the brown sugar over the pineapple and cook until caramelized, about 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer the pineapple to a cutting board and chop into bite-sized pieces.

In a small bowl, mix together the balsamic vinegar and red onion slices. Let it sit for a few minutes to marinate. Warm the flour tortillas in the skillet for about 30 seconds on each side.

To assemble the tacos, place a few pieces of caramelized pineapple on each tortilla, followed by a couple of bacon strips. Top with marinated red onions and fresh cilantro leaves. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Serving:

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 800g, with about 6 servings. Each serving weighs around 133g. The calorie count per serving is estimated to be around 250 calories.

One clever tip for this recipe is to drizzle a bit of honey over the tacos before serving. The sweetness enhances the flavors of the caramelized pineapple and bacon, creating a perfect balance of taste.
