  And eyes removed
1 cup 146g / 5.1ozCoarse chopped macadamias
1/3 cup 53g / 1.9ozLt. Brown sugar - (packed)
1   Salt
4 tablespoons 60mlUnsalted butter, melted

Recipe Instructions

1. Preheat the broiler. Cut the pineapple into 8 slices, each about 1-inch thick. 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.

2. In a small bowl, combine the nuts, brown sugar and salt. Add the butter and stir until well blended.

3. Place the pineapple slices on a baking sheet lined with foil. Sprinkle with a few tablespoons of the nut mixture or arrange in a graphic pattern over each pineapple slice.

4. Broil the pineapple slices about 6 inches from the heat until the filling starts to caramelize, about 1 1/2 minutes. Serve hot.
