Instructions
Making One-Pan Coconut Curry Salmon with Garlic Butter is as easy as following these steps:
1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather all ingredients and chop the vegetables to make the cooking process smoother.
2. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
3. Sauté Garlic and Ginger: Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
4. Add Curry Powder: Sprinkle in the curry powder and stir for another minute to release its flavors.
5. Pour in Coconut Milk: Slowly add the coconut milk, mixing well with the sautéed garlic and ginger. Let it simmer for about 2-3 minutes.
6. Add Vegetables: Stir in the chopped spinach and red bell pepper. Cook until the spinach wilts, about 2-3 minutes.
7. Prepare the Salmon: Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper, then carefully place them in the skillet, skin-side down.
8. Cover and Cook: Cover the skillet and allow the salmon to cook for about 7-10 minutes or until cooked through and flaky.
9. Finish with Lime Juice: Drizzle the lime juice over the salmon before serving to add a fresh zing.
10. Garnish: Sprinkle with freshly chopped cilantro and, if desired, slices of chili for an extra kick.
