- 2 cups uncooked white rice
- 2 Tbsp avocado oil or coconut oil
- 1/2 small yellow onion finely chopped
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2 large carrots peeled and chopped
- 1 cup peas
- 3 stalks green onion chopped
- 1 to 5 Thai chilies finely chopped, optional
- 1 lb frozen shrimp or fresh raw shrimp, de-veined
- 2 Tbsp fish sauce
- 3 Tbsp red curry paste or green curry paste
- 2 Tbsp coconut aminos or liquid aminos
- 2 cups fresh pineapple chopped
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes optional
- 1/2 tsp sea salt to taste
- 2/3 cup roasted cashews
Begin by cooking the white rice according to package instructions. While the rice is cooking, prepare the rest of the recipe.
Add the oil to a large skillet or wok and heat to medium.
Add the onion, garlic, carrots, peas, green onion and Thai chilies (if adding) and saute, stirring occasionally until vegetables begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the shrimp, fish sauce, red curry paste, and coconut aminos and continue cooking until shrimp is pink and cooked through, about 3 minutes.
Add the cooked rice and pineapple to the skillet and stir well. Taste for flavor and add red pepper flakes and sea salt to taste. You can also add more coconut aminos, curry paste, and/or fish sauce.
Stir in roasted cashews and serve!
