Sweet and Spicy Pineapple Relish

1 cup chopped up pineapple (or crushed would work)
1 Serrano chile, minced up very fine
1 tablespoon minced purple onion  (you might call it red onion)
squeeze 1 lemon or lime
salt & pepper
2 tablespoons of olive oil

Combine everything, let it set awhile. I added a few grape tomatoes that I had pan roasted. Just spoon it over your fish or chicken and say YUM-m-m-m-m-m-m-m.
