Enjoy this Thai chicken curry with rice, noodles, or flat bread. This curry is made with coconut milk and sweetened with pineapple.

Ingredients

2 teaspoons curry powder
1 teaspoon curry paste
1 (13 1/2 ounce) can coconut milk
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
1 cup chicken stock
4 chicken thighs, cut into bite size pieces
1/2 cup frozen peas
1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/2 cup chopped carrot
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons chicken stock
3/4 cup chopped fresh pineapple

Directions

1 Cook and stir the curry powder and curry paste in a saucepan over medium-low heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Pour the coconut milk into the saucepan and mix well. Stir in the fish sauce, brown sugar, and 1 cup chicken stock.
2 Place the chicken thighs, peas, peppers, and carrots into the saucepan with the curry sauce. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low. Simmer until the chicken is cooked though, about 25 minutes.
3 Whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold chicken stock. Stir cornstarch mixture into the curry. Mix the pineapple into the curry and cook until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
