Glazed Pineapple Madagascar

4 servings

9 ounces peeled, cored pineapple

1 teaspoons green peppercorns, rinsed

¾ ounces sugar

9 fluid ounces orange juice

1 1/2 fluid ounces light rum

1 tablespoons honey

Slice the pineapple into 4 portions.

Mash the peppercorns using the back of a wooden spoon. Rub the peppercorns on the pineapple slices and sprinkle evenly with the sugar.

Combine the orange juice, rum, and honey.

For each serving heat a large sauté pan over high heat. Place 1 pineapple slice in the pan, sugared side down. Sauté until the sugar is browned and there is a distinct caramel smell. Turn the slice and sauté until the second side is browned. Transfer the pineapple to a serving plate and add 2 fluid ounces of the juice mixture to the pan. Reduce to a syrupy consistency and pour over the pineapple slice. Serve immediately
