Today’s Adventure: Spicy Pineapple Coconut Curry

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a recipe that’s perfect for adding a little excitement to your weeknight dinner routine. This Spicy Pineapple Coconut Curry is a unique blend of sweet, spicy, and savory flavors that will transport your taste buds to a tropical paradise. I love making this dish when I’m in the mood for something exotic and comforting at the same time.

For this flavorful curry, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 1 small pineapple, cubed
  • 400ml coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp red curry paste
  • 400g chicken breast, diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 1 zucchini, sliced
  • Handful of fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

To bring this dish to life, you’ll need the following kitchen tools:

  • large skillet
  • wooden spoon
  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • measuring cups

Start by heating a large skillet over medium heat. Add the red curry paste and cook for a minute until fragrant. Then, add the diced chicken breast and cook until browned on all sides. Next, toss in the sliced bell pepper, onion, and zucchini, and cook for a few more minutes until they start to soften.

Once the veggies are slightly tender, pour in the coconut milk and add the cubed pineapple. Stir everything together and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the flavors have melded together.

Just before serving, squeeze the lime juice over the curry and sprinkle with fresh cilantro. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve this Spicy Pineapple Coconut Curry over a bed of fluffy rice or steamed quinoa for a complete meal.

This delicious curry serves 4 and each serving weighs approximately 400g. One serving of this Spicy Pineapple Coconut Curry is estimated to be around 350 calories.

Pro tip: For an extra burst of flavor, try adding a handful of toasted coconut flakes on top of the curry just before serving. The crisp and nutty texture will take this dish to a whole new level!

I hope you give this Spicy Pineapple Coconut Curry a try soon. Feel free to customize it with your favorite veggies or proteins to make it your own. Enjoy!
