Coconut & Pineapple Chicken Curry over Rice Noodles

There was a time that I hated curry.  In fact I would not touch it with a 10 foot pole.  The first time that I tried chicken curry I was 22 or 23 years old living in Washington, DC.  I worked close to Le’fant Plaza which has a sort of underground food court.  It was on the “specials board” at one of the sandwich shops, so I thought I would give it a try.  It wasn’t cool….in fact I thought it was disgusting.  I don’t remember what it was about this chicken curry that was such a turn off but I remember being seriously perplexed that my co-worker was scarfing it down like it was a fillet Mignon covered in butter.

Birthday Carrot Cake

Birthday Carrot Cake

Looks good doesn’t it? 

Go ahead smell it.

It smell delicious….Oh wait, I forgot we do not have smell-a-vision yet.  You would think with the advances in technology we would have smell-a-vision by now.  It would come in handy in the food blogging community. 
Examine this cake closely, look at all the goodies and hidden treasures in this slice of carrot cake.  Do you see the raisins, pineapple and pecans….Mmmmmm and carrot of course.  Anyways this is the most fabulous carrot cake ever….well I think so. :D   
This cake is a special occasion cake, it is Hubby’s birthday today.  YEAH!  Carrot cake is Hubby’s favorite, he loves the cream cheese frosting.   I surprised Hubby at the office with cake, milk, balloons and Go Diego plates and cups, just because I thought it would be funny. :D
This cake rocked and I got many Oooooohs and Aaaaaaahs from his co-workers and the birthday boy loved it too.   Trust me this cake is so good and moist you will be making it all the time.  Your eye sight will improve, you skin will develop a healthy orange glow, your mid section with get all squishy and make you all that much more huggable.  Ok so the Pillsbury Dough Boy part isn’t great, but the cake is stinking delicious.

Pineapple Curry Glazed Chiken Skewers

Pineapple Curry Glazed Chicken Skewers

I am so proud of this dish, I made it all by my lonesome, no recipe or cookbook used. If you like the flavors of coconut, pineapple and curry this is definitely a dish for you.   These delicious little morsels turned out even better than I thought they would.  I swear they were like meaty candied morsels….LOL.  They are savory and sweet with just a bit of heat, soooo yummy.  I will admit though I was inspired to use pineapple from Kayotic Kitchen’s twitter feed, she mentioned a pineapple version of her Peachy Chicken.   

Of course the best part about this dish was that it was easy to make.  Hubby said that this had to be one of the top five, although I am not really sure which ones the other four would be. :D   I would definitely use this glaze again, Hubby said to be sure to write it down so we can use it on the grill this summer.

I served these skewers over a bed of jasmine rice that I cooked with equal parts water and coconut milk.  Yum!
