Escape to Paradise: Tropical Coconut Pineapple Curry Recipe

Today’s Special: Tropical Coconut Pineapple Curry

I’m excited to share this exotic recipe with you today! Inspired by my recent trip to Thailand, where I enjoyed a delightful fusion of flavors in a cozy beachside hut, I decided to recreate that experience with this unique dish. The combination of tropical coconut, juicy pineapple, and aromatic curry spices will transport your taste buds to a sunny paradise with every bite.

For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:

• Chicken breast, sliced
• Ripe pineapple, cubed
• Coconut milk
• Red bell pepper, sliced
• Onion, diced
• Garlic, minced
• Red curry paste
• Turmeric powder
• Coriander powder
• Cumin powder
• Fish sauce
• Brown sugar
• Basil leaves, for garnish

Be sure to have the following kitchen tools ready:

• chef’s knife
• cutting board
• large skillet
• wooden spoon

Start by heating a splash of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until fragrant. Stir in the red curry paste, turmeric, coriander, and cumin powders, allowing the spices to bloom.

Next, add the sliced chicken breast to the skillet, cooking until browned on all sides. Pour in the coconut milk, fish sauce, and brown sugar, stirring to combine. Let the curry simmer for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Once the curry has thickened slightly, add the cubed pineapple and sliced red bell pepper to the skillet. Let the ingredients simmer together until the chicken is cooked through and the pineapple is tender. Adjust the seasoning to your liking with more fish sauce or sugar if needed.

To serve, ladle the tropical coconut pineapple curry into bowls and garnish with fresh basil leaves. The vibrant colors and refreshing flavors will surely brighten up your day!

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 1200g, with 4 servings. Each serving weighs around 300g, with an estimated calorie count of 400 calories per portion.

One clever tip for this recipe is to add a squeeze of lime juice over the curry just before serving. The acidity will balance out the rich coconut milk and enhance the overall flavor profile of the dish.
