pineapples up the ying yang and been looking for ways to use them.
Took some cilantro, a little canned chopped green chilies, green pepper,
tomato, Vidalia onion and mixed it up with some finely chopped pineapple
chunks and garlic salt. Served the pineapple salsa on the side with the pork
roast I made tonight. Worked out to be a good combination.
Now, I'm off to finding some more creative uses for my bounty. Suggestions
are welcomed!

Tropical chicken!
Take one whole chicken and cut it in half lenthwise. (You could use
chicken breasts or hindquarters as well.) Coat a cast iron skillet
liberally with olive oil and lay the chicken in the bottom of it, skin
side up. Sprinkle with black pepper and set aside.
Take two mangoes, skin, seed and puree in the blender or food processor.
Do the same with 3 cups of pineapple. Add 1/2 cup of minced shallots or
scallions.
Mix well and pour over the top of the chicken.
Bake at 375 until done, depending on how much chicken you are cooking.
Usually, about an hour will do it for a whole chicken.
Enjoy!
