NOTES
*Instead of 6 fresh pears, you can use 2 (15 oz.) cans of halved pears, drained. Instead of 1/4 fresh pineapple, you can use 1 (15 oz.) can pineapple slices, drained.
DIRECTIONS
Preheat broiler. Place pears and pineapple on a baking sheet lined with foil. Broil for 4 to 5 min. per side then set aside to cool. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine bell peppers, lime juice and La Plata. Mince chipotle chiles from adobo sauce and add both chiles and sauce to bowl. (For more heat, use a 1/2 can of chipotle in adobo; to ease up a bit, use 1/4 can.) Add remaining ingredients and stir lightly. Coarsely dice roasted pears and pineapple and gently fold into salsa. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS
Serve with chips or as a topping for fish, pork or chicken.
