Macadamia Nut Chicken with Mango-Pineapple Relish

I have finally used up all the pineapple I purchased the other day.  I sort of feel like I took a little sidetrip to Hawaii.  We are experiencing beautiful weather here in Oregon, so pineapple was a wonderful accompaniment to the abundant sunshine we are currently enjoying.
