This was the perfect accompaniment to my grilled jerk chicken. I used only half the pineapple and one jalapeno because there were only two of us, but the other amounts remained the same. I had some cilantro that needed to be used, so I added that to the parsley and the flavors were even fresher and brighter. Next time, I might also try lime juice instead of the vinegar. And, I'll definitely make the full amount because this I know this will never sit in the refrigerator and go unused. Fantastic!
