Add the seasonings, cooked chicken, and warm through
Check the seasoning and add more salt and pepper if desired
Remove from the heat and add the pineapple cut into cubes
Fill the pineapple boats with the chicken mixture, distributing evenly
Sprinkle with almonds or cashews, and then with a little Parmesan cheese
Place in a hot oven (200°F) and bake until lightly browned
