20 oz. can pineapple rings in juce, drained
1 large lime

2 tsp. Jamaican jerk seasoning
1 small red onion, cut crosswise into 4 slices (1/4 inch thick)

Description
Spray a gill rack with olive oil nonstick spray, preheat grill to medium-high. Drain the pineapple on paper towels. Grate 1/2 tsp. zest from the lime; squeeze 3 T juice. Brush the pork with 2 T of the lime juice, then sprinkle it with the jerk seasoning.
