Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound fresh salmon
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 medium onion (chopped)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 heaping tablespoons Thai red curry paste
  • 1 (13.5 ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup matchstick cut carrots
  • 1 heaping cup chopped broccolini
  • Fresh basil and cilantro for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cut the salmon into four equal pieces, season with salt and pepper.
  2. In a skillet over medium-high heat, melt olive oil and butter. Sear the salmon skin-side down for about 5 minutes; flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until nearly done.
  3. Remove the salmon from the skillet and set aside. Drain excess oil, leaving about a tablespoon in the pan.
  4. Sauté onions until lightly browned (about 3 minutes), then add minced garlic and curry paste, cooking for an additional minute.
  5. Stir in coconut milk, carrots, broccolini, and brown sugar; simmer gently for about 5 minutes until veggies are tender-crisp.
  6. Add lime juice, return the salmon to the skillet to warm through, season if needed, then garnish with fresh herbs before serving.
