Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Yield: 5 -6 Servings
A simple chicken and pineapple curry. Creamy coconut milk makes this pineapple chicken curry so yummy. Delicious served over rice and ready in 20 minutes!

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion, finely diced
  • 2 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 2 tbsp curry powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground cardamom
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp ground coriander
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2-1 fresh green chile, finely diced
  • 1 can coconut milk
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
  • 1 small pineapple, cubed or 1 can cubed pineapple

Instructions
 

  • In a medium-sized pot over medium heat, add the olive oil, onion, and garlic. Saute until onion is soft and garlic is fragrant.
  • Add the ginger, curry powder, cardamom, coriander, salt, pepper, and chile. Saute for 1-2 minutes, or until spices are fragrant.
  • Add the coconut milk, chicken breasts, and pineapple. Bring coconut milk to a simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
  • Serve with coconut rice and veggies of choice.

Notes

  • If you serve with rice, cooking it in coconut milk makes an excellent companion to this curry!
  • For those who are paleo, coconut cauliflower rice would be excellent with this.
  • Start with half a chili and check the spiciness once everything is done cooking. If you want more heat, add cayenne 1/4 tsp at a time, tasting and stirring between additions.
  • This freezes well and makes great leftovers!
