SALMON CURRY WITH COCONUT MILK
This Easy Salmon Curry recipe is made with coconut milk, curry powder, turmeric, and loads of vegetables. You can serve this Thai-style coconut milk curry over rice or cauliflower rice for a healthy, gluten-free, dairy-free, Paleo, and Whole30 dinner recipe!
Ingredients
- 1.25 lbs. salmon cut into 5 filets*
- 2 Tbsp. oil olive or avocado
- ½ sweet onion thinly sliced
- 1 red bell pepper thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic crushed
- ½ tsp. ginger paste or grated ginger
- 1 tsp. salt to taste
- 1 ½ Tbsp. curry powder
- ¼ tsp. ground turmeric
- 1 tsp. coriander
- 1 Tbsp. coconut sugar or brown sugar, optional
- 1 tsp. chili garlic paste
- 15- oz. can coconut milk full fat*
- 1 lime juice
2 cups spinach coarsely chopped
Instructions
- In a large skillet or saucepan over medium heat add 1 tablespoon of oil and salmon filets. Sear salmon for 1-2 minutes per side. Remove salmon from skillet.
- Add remaining tablespoon of oil along with the sliced onion and bell pepper. Saute for 4-5 minutes or until the vegetables start to get tender.
- Stir in crushed garlic and ginger paste and saute for 1 minute.
- In a separate small bowl whisk together the salt, curry powder, turmeric, coriander, and sugar (if using).
- Add spice mix, chili paste, coconut milk, and lime juice to the skillet and stir to combine. Bring sauce to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer.
- Place the salmon filets back into the skillet and cover with a lid. Cook salmon curry for 10-12 minutes or until salmon is cooked through. Stir in chopped spinach just before serving.
- Serve salmon curry over rice or cauliflower rice with cilantro and enjoy!
Recipe Notes
- You can choose to leave the skin on the salmon or take it off after searing (I find it comes off more easily after this point.)
- Lite coconut milk can be substituted, but the sauce will be thinner and not quite as flavorful.
- Do not use the refrigerated coconut milk, it will not give you the same results as the canned milk.
