This dish combines the best of both worlds--juicy pineapple sweetness with spicy-hot red pepper. For a cooling accompaniment, add a side of hot cooked rice or pasta and a bowl of fresh pineapple chunks topped with fresh mint.

1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup pineapple or orange marmalade spreadable fruit
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon grated ginger root
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper, if desired
