Mmmmmmmmm, this turned out really good. Make sure the pineapple chunks don't get burned. The gravy at the end is not really gravy, it's more like a thickened sauce from all the juices in the pan. I just call it gravy because after thickening it you can pour it over the chicken like you would any other regular gravy.
