Pina Colada Thai Fried Rice image

Came across this at the Newman's Own website. Chicken and pineapple salsa and red curry paste--three of my favorites together! They say if necessary you can substitute 1 tsp curry powder plus 1 tsp chili powder for the red curry paste in the recipe. Don't mistake cream of coconut for unsweetened coconut milk. Cooking time is time to both cook and chill rice (although I would make the rice in a rice cooker rather than on the stove and omit the salt).

This dish is a bit too expensive to make on a regular basis. I think I'll save it for special occasions.

I'm not sure why this recipe is called Pina Colada Thai Fried Rice. It doesn't really taste like a Pina Colada.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll stick to simpler Thai recipes in the future.

The rice was a bit too sticky for my taste. I think I'll try using a different type of rice next time.

I'm not sure about the pineapple in this dish. It seems like it would be too sweet.

I'm not a huge fan of pineapple, but I really enjoyed this dish. The coconut milk and shrimp mellow out the pineapple flavor.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover pineapple and coconut milk. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.

This Pina Colada Thai Fried Rice is a fun and flavorful twist on a classic dish. The coconut milk and pineapple add a tropical sweetness that pairs perfectly with the savory shrimp and vegetables.
