Instructions
Heat a grill to medium-low heat. Grill the chiles until blistered and softened all over.
Remove the rind from the pineapple and slice into1-inch-thick rounds.
Brush the pineapple slices with canola oil and sprinkle with a little sugar. Grill until caramelized on all sides and just soft, about 10 minutes total.
Remove and let cool slightly.
Roughly chop half of the pineapple slices and 1 of the chiles. Put in a food processor with the butter and process until almost smooth.
Add 2 of the green onions and the chile de arbol and pulse just to combine. Taste. If the pineapple isn't very sweet, add some honey and pulse just to combine.
Transfer to a bowl, cover and refrigerate until firm and the flavors meld, at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
Let it warm slightly before grilling the fish.
Finely dice the remaining pineapple and chile.
Put them in a bowl with the remaining green onions, the olive oil, lime juice and some salt and pepper. Toss to combine. Set aside while you grill the fish.
Increase the heat of the grill to high.
Brush the fish with canola oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill, flesh-side down, until charred and you can move it with a fish spatula without the flesh sticking to the grill, about 3 minutes. Flip, and smear some of the pineapple butter on the flesh side. Grill the second side until charred, about 3 minutes.
Transfer to a platter, smear on a bit more of the butter mixture, top with the pineapple relish and serve immediately.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Fish on the menu? Try pairing with Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. You could try Alsace Willm Pinot Gris Reserve. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 16 dollars per bottle.

Alsace Willm Pinot Gris Reserve
An intense golden color with hints of ocher, the wine has a nose of ripe fruit, quince. In the mouth the attack is both supple and full, with notes of honey and spices. The final perfectly balances sugar and acidity.Pair this wine alongside pan-fried foie gras, grilled or roasted white meats (pork, veal), rabbit, poultry in cream sauce, smoked fish, mushroom dishes such as risotto.
