Today’s Special: Tropical Pineapple Coconut Curry

Today, I am excited to share with you a dish that transports me back to a tropical paradise. The sweet and savory flavors of this pineapple coconut curry are the perfect combination for a summer evening meal. The vibrant colors and exotic aromas will surely delight your senses and whisk you away to a far-off island.

Ingredients:

  • fresh pineapple chunks
  • coconut milk
  • chicken breast
  • onion
  • garlic
  • ginger
  • lemongrass stalk
  • red chili
  • turmeric
  • cumin
  • coriander
  • coconut oil
  • fresh cilantro
  • lime
  • salt and pepper

Kitchen Tools:

  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • large skillet
  • wooden spoon
  • grater
  • measuring spoons

To start, dice the onion and mince the garlic, ginger, lemongrass, and red chili. Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, ginger, lemongrass, and chili, and sauté until fragrant. Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and add them to the skillet, cooking until browned.

Sprinkle turmeric, cumin, and coriander over the chicken and stir well to coat. Pour in the coconut milk and add the fresh pineapple chunks. Let the curry simmer for 15-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the flavors have melded together.

While the curry is simmering, zest the lime and squeeze the juice over the dish. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve the pineapple coconut curry hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and lime zest.

Clever Tip:

For an extra burst of flavor, try grating some fresh coconut over the curry just before serving. It adds a delightful texture and tropical essence to the dish.

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 1200g, with 4 servings. Each serving weighs around 300g, with an estimated calorie count of 350 per serving. I hope you enjoy this exotic twist on a classic curry dish and make it your own with your favorite ingredients!
