May 1 - Chicken Pineapple Fried Rice

Chicken Pineapple Fried Rice (Nasi Nenas) is my family's favorite rice dish whenever we eat at a Malaysian restaurant, together with Beef Satay.

An easier way to prepare it is to use cooked (Basmati or Jasmine) rice.

Cook the chicken with the salt, pepper and curry seasoning. This gives it more flavor and zest before mixing it with the rice.
