To start, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). While that’s heating up, let’s get started on the salmon rub. In a small bowl, mix together the avocado oil, ginger, garlic, brown sugar, red curry paste, and salt. Yes, it’s a lot of flavor, but trust us, it’s worth it!
Place the salmon fillets in a large oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven. Brush the salmon rub all over the fillets, making sure they’re fully coated. Don’t be shy – you want that flavor to shine through!
Next, heat the skillet over medium-high heat on your stovetop. Add the bell peppers and onions, and cook until they’re tender and lightly browned. This will take about 5-7 minutes, but it’s worth the wait.
Now it’s time to add the curry sauce. Pour in the coconut milk, fish sauce, and lime juice. Stir everything together, making sure the sauce is smooth and creamy. Bring the sauce to a simmer and let it cook for 2-3 minutes, or until it’s slightly thickened.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Serve the salmon curry over jasmine rice, brown rice, or cauliflower rice for a low-carb option. You’ve got yourself a wholesome meal that’s as nutritious as it is tasty!
This Red Curry Salmon is a game-changer for busy weeknights. It’s quick, flavorful, and packed with nutrients. So go ahead, give it a try, and indulge in the delicious world of Thai-inspired flavors!
