Ingredients:

• boneless, skinless chicken breast (400g)
• fresh pineapple (200g)
• coconut milk (400ml)
• red curry paste (2 tbsp)
• red bell pepper (1)
• onion (1)

To start, dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and pepper. In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the chicken until cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add diced onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté until fragrant, then stir in the red curry paste. Pour in the coconut milk, stirring until well combined. Add in diced red bell pepper and pineapple chunks.

Simmer the curry for 10-15 minutes until the flavors meld together and the sauce thickens slightly. Squeeze in the juice of one lime for a burst of citrusy freshness.

Once the curry is ready, return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to combine. Serve the Spicy Pineapple Coconut Chicken Curry hot over steamed rice, garnished with fresh cilantro.
