Directions

Prep 5 minCook 20 min
  1. 1

    Pat the salmon dry. Season both sides evenly with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Heat a drizzle of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place the salmon fillets in the pan, skin-side up, and sear until golden, about 3–4 minutes. Flip and cook another 3–4 minutes, or until just cooked through. Transfer to a plate.

  3. 3

    In the same skillet, add the curry powder, turmeric, and cayenne. Stir constantly for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

  4. 4

    Pour in the coconut milk and stir to combine, scraping up any browned bits. Simmer gently until slightly thickened, 3–5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Return the salmon to the skillet and spoon the sauce over the top. Simmer 2–3 minutes to warm through.

  6. 6

    Serve the salmon with the coconut curry sauce spooned over each fillet.
