-
In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the oil until it’s hot. Sauté the brussels sprouts for 5 to 7 minutes, or until they begin to brown, stirring occasionally. For crispier brussels sprouts, sauté a couple minutes longer.

Stir in the brown sugar, salt, pepper, and pineapple. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until heated through. Sprinkle with the macadamia nuts and serve.
