Number Of Ingredients 5

1 large ripe pineapple, end trimmed, skin and eyes removed
1 c coarsely chopped macadamia nuts
1/3 c light brown sugar - firmly packed
pinch salt
4 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the broiler.
  • 2. Cut the pineapple into 8 slices, each about 1-inch thick.
  • 3. For a decorative presentation you might want to cut notched grooves 1 inch apart on the top of each slice to suggest the grooves of a scallop shell.
  • 4. In a small bowl, combine the nuts, brown sugar and salt.
  • 5. Add the butter and stir until well blended.
  • 6. Place the pineapple slices on a baking sheet lined with foil.
  • 7. Sprinkle with a few tablespoons of the nut mixture or arrange in a graphic pattern over each pineapple slice.
  • 8. Broil the pineapple slices about 6 inches from the heat until the filling starts to caramelize, about 1 1/2 minutes.
  • 9. Serve hot.
