Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 salmon fillets (about 150g each)
  • 1 cup canned coconut milk
  • Zest and juice of 1 lime
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 cup cooked jasmine rice
  • Salt, pepper, paprika to taste
  • 1 tsp curry powder or turmeric

Instructions

  1. Season the salmon fillets with salt, pepper, and paprika. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the salmon for 3-4 minutes on each side until cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, sauté minced garlic until fragrant. Add coconut milk, lime zest, lime juice, curry powder (or turmeric), and honey (or maple syrup). Simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
  3. Return the salmon to the skillet, spooning sauce over to coat evenly. Simmer for another minute before removing from heat.
  4. Serve over jasmine rice, drizzled with extra sauce and garnished with cherry tomatoes, lime wedges, and cilantro.
