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).

I had some trouble finding some of the ingredients, but I was able to substitute them with other things I had on hand.

This dish is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think I can adjust the amount of pineapple and coconut milk next time.
