This dish is perfect for a cozy night in or for entertaining guests with something unexpected and delicious.

Ingredients:

• 400g cubed chicken breast
• 250g diced pineapple
• 400ml coconut milk
• 50g red curry paste
• 30ml fish sauce
• 20g brown sugar
• a handful of chopped cilantro

• for serving

Kitchen Tools:

• measuring spoons

To start, heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the red curry paste, cooking it for a minute until fragrant. Next, add the cubed chicken breast and cook until browned on all sides. Toss in the diced pineapple and cook for another 2-3 minutes until slightly caramelized.

Pour in the coconut milk, fish sauce, and brown sugar, stirring to combine all the flavors. Let the curry simmer for about 15-20 minutes, allowing the chicken to cook through and the sauce to thicken slightly. Just before serving, add a squeeze of lime juice for a burst of freshness.

Serve the Spicy Pineapple Coconut Curry over cooked rice, garnished with chopped cilantro for a pop of color and flavor. The creamy coconut milk pairs perfectly with the sweetness of the pineapple and the kick of heat from the red curry paste. Each bite is a burst of tropical paradise in your mouth.

Tips:

For an extra depth of flavor, try toasting the red curry paste in the skillet before adding the chicken. This will bring out the aromatics and intensify the spicy notes in the dish.
