Pineapple Yellow Curry

I was in Trader Joe's the other day buying more bbq sauce when I saw a jar of Yellow Curry Sauce. That reminded me of a pineapple curry dinner I had at a Thai restaurant once. I loved that and wanted to make something similar at home. This is what I came up with:

Pineapple Yellow Curry

2 tsp olive oil, divided
1 chicken breast or 2-3 pork chops, cut into small pieces
1/2 onion, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
1/2 yellow pepper, chopped
1/2 cup pineapple tidbits
1 jar Trader Joe's Thai Yellow Curry Sauce (or more depending on how saucy you want your dinner)

Coat a pan with 1 tsp olive oil and heat to medium-high. Add the meat and cook, stirring frequently, until cooked through. Remove meat to a plate and cover with foil.

Add the last tsp of olive oil to the pan. Add the onions and carrot. Cook over medium heat for 7 minutes. Add the peppers. Cook, stirring often, for 7 minutes.

Pour the sauce into the pan. Put the chicken and the pineapple in the pan. Mix to coat everything and heat through. Serve immediately over your favorite rice.
