Ingredients

  • 200ml coconut milk
  • 150g fresh pineapple, diced

  • 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped

Preparation

Start by heating a skillet over medium heat. Add in the coconut milk and curry powder, stirring to combine. Allow the mixture to simmer for a few minutes until the flavors meld together.
Next, add in the chicken breast slices, red bell pepper, and diced pineapple. Let the ingredients simmer in the coconut curry sauce until the chicken is cooked through and the flavors have fully developed.
Finish off the dish by squeezing fresh lime juice over the top and garnishing with chopped cilantro. Add salt to taste and give everything a final stir to incorporate all the flavors.
