Salmon Curry With Mustard Greens Recipes

GREEN CURRY SALMON

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment* or foil. Place the salmon filets on the parchment, brush evenly with 1 tablespoon oil, then sprinkle evenly with a generous pinch of salt and black pepper. Bake until the internal temperature of the salmon reaches 135-140°F*, about 4-6 minutes per half inch of thickness (measured by the thickest part of the filet). You can also test for doneness by inserting a fork or knife in the salmon and twisting it a bit; the fish should be opaque and flake easily. Remove from the oven and set aside.
• Meanwhile, as your oven is heating for the salmon, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add in the chopped light green parts of the bok choy, garlic, ginger and sauté for 2 minutes, stirring often. Add in the green curry paste* and sauté for 1 minute, stirring often.
• Add in the coconut milk, giving it a good stir until the curry paste has evenly dissolved into the sauce. Continue cooking until the sauce nearly reaches a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Stir in the dark green bok choy leaves and the lime juice until combined. Then give the sauce a taste, and season with salt, pepper, and/or extra lime juice as needed.
• Serve the salmon, veggies and sauce over rice, garnished with lots of fresh cilantro and an extra lime wedge.

EASY SALMON GREEN CURRY (1 POT!)

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Once hot, add the shallots, garlic, ginger, and serrano (optional) and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until softened.
• Add the sweet potato, cauliflower (or other veggie of choice), and red bell pepper and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently to soften slightly.
• Add the green curry paste (starting with the lesser amount and using only 2-3 Tbsp if subbing store-bought), water, coconut milk, coconut aminos, maple syrup or honey (optional), and salt (omit if using store-bought curry paste) and stir. Taste the broth - it should be subtly spicy and a little rich, sweet, salty, and bright. Adjust if needed, adding more curry paste for curry flavor, ginger for freshness and zing, coconut aminos for saltiness, serrano for heat, maple syrup for sweetness, or lemon or lime juice for brightness (you'll likely need the lemon/lime if using store-bought curry paste but not if using homemade).
• Cover and simmer until the vegetables are fork tender - about 5-10 minutes. Then stir in the cubed salmon and chopped kale (or collard greens or spinach // optional), reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer gently until just cooked through - about 5 minutes. Taste and adjust once more, adding lemon or lime juice for brightness, maple syrup for sweetness, coconut aminos for depth, or salt to taste.
• Serve warm garnished with freshly chopped basil or cilantro and/or chopped roasted cashews (all optional). It pairs well with rice (brown or white), coconut rice, cauliflower rice, or quinoa.
• Leftovers will keep stored in the refrigerator for 1-2 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month. Reheat gently on the stovetop until warmed through.

SALMON CURRY WITH MUSTARD GREENS

Steps:

• Place mustard greens in a large pot of lightly salted boiling water. Cook 6 to 8 minutes or until tender. Drain; rinse with cold running water. Squeeze out excess moisture. Coarsely chop.
• In Dutch oven or deep saute pan, heat oil over medium heat until hot. Add shallots, jalapenos, garlic and ginger; cook and stir 1 minute or until fragrant. Add coconut milk, lime juice, fish sauce, brown sugar and hot sauce; bring to a simmer. Add salmon and tomatoes; return to a simmer. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 3 minutes. Stir in mustard greens; simmer, covered, an additional 2 to 3 minutes or until salmon just begins to flake. Serve garnished with lime wedges. Enjoy!

BROILED SALMON WITH MUSTARD AND LEMON

Steps:

• Position one oven rack 6 inches from the broiler heat source then heat the broiler. Season the salmon fillets all over with ½ teaspoon salt and a couple of grinds of pepper and place them on an aluminum foil-lined sheet pan, skin side down.
• In a small bowl, whisk the oil and mustard until well mixed. Brush the tops and sides of the salmon with this mustard mixture.
• Broil until the salmon is opaque with a deep brown crust, about 6 to 8 minutes for medium-rare. (The center of the fillets will be dark pink, if you pierce one with a paring knife and take a look.) If your fillets are thinner, reduce cooking time by 1 to 2 minutes. If you prefer more well-done fish, add 1 or 2 minutes to the cooking time.
• Squeeze a lemon wedge all over the cooked salmon fillets, then serve salmon with more lemon wedges on the side.

SALMON, MUSTARD GREENS AND POTATOES WITH MUSTARD-DILL GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix first 4 ingredients in small bowl. (Sauce can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Cover and let stand at room temperature.) Place potatoes in small bowl. Spoon 1 tablespoon sauce over and toss to coat. Arrange potatoes in baking pan. Bake 15 minutes.
• Remove pan from oven; push potatoes to sides of pan. Spread each salmon fillet with 2 teaspoons sauce and place in center of baking pan. Bake until salmon is cooked through, about 18 minutes. Meanwhile, place greens in large skillet. Toss with 2 tablespoons sauce. Stir over medium-high until wilted, about 4 minutes. Divide salmon, greens and potatoes between 2 plates. Serve, passing remaining sauce separately.

ROASTED SALMON GLAZED WITH BROWN SUGAR AND MUSTARD

Steps:

• Heat your oven to 400 degrees.
• Make a mixture of Dijon mustard and brown sugar to the degree of spicy-sweetness that pleases you. Salt and pepper the salmon fillets.
• Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on a lightly oiled, foil-lined baking sheet. Slather the tops of the fillets with the mustard and brown sugar glaze and slide them into the top half of your oven. Roast for about 12 minutes, then serve.

SALMON AND BOK CHOY GREEN COCONUT CURRY

Steps:

• Season salmon on all sides with 1 tsp. salt. Let sit until ready to use.
• Cook coconut milk, curry paste, ginger, garlic, and remaining 1 tsp. salt in a large high-sided skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until simmering, 5-6 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut bok choy stems into 1/2"-thick slices and leaves into 2" pieces. Rinse well and drain. Add to coconut milk mixture and stir to coat. Nestle salmon fillets into bok choy in an even layer. Cover pan and cook over medium-low heat until salmon is just cooked through and flesh is opaque, 6-8 minutes. Remove from heat and pour lime juice over salmon.
• Scatter scallions, cilantro, cashews, and chile (if using) over salmon and bok choy. Serve with rice alongside (if using).
