Thai Curry Halibut Recipes

THAI SHRIMP HALIBUT CURRY

Steps:

• Finely grate enough peel from 2 limes to measure 1 1/2 teaspoons. Squeeze enough juice from 2 limes to measure 2 tablespoons. Cut third lime into wedges.
• Heat vegetable oil in large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add chopped shallots, diced red bell pepper, and minced ginger; sautè until shallots are tender and peppers soften, about 5 minutes. Stir in curry paste, coconut milk, fish sauce, 1 1/2 teaspoons lime peel, and 2 tablespoons lime juice. Simmer gently, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle fish and shrimp with salt and pepper. Add fish and shrimp to curry sauce. Return to very gentle simmer and cook just until fish and shrimp are opaque in center, 5 to 6 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Gently stir in cilantro and basil; serve with lime wedges.

HALIBUT GREEN CURRY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the cilantro, mint, coconut milk, 2 tablespoons water, 1 tablespoon of the oil, the brown sugar, lime juice, garlic, ginger, pepper and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a food processor. Pulse until smooth, then transfer to a small bowl.
• Lay out a 24-inch piece of foil on a baking sheet. Toss the kale with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and a pinch of salt. Arrange in a single layer in the middle of the foil. Nestle the fish filets on the kale and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Evenly spread the green curry sauce over each filet. Top loosely with another 24-inch piece of foil (try to keep the foil from touching the fish) and seal the edges.
• Bake the foil pack until the fish is just cooked through and the greens are crisp-tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Carefully unseal the foil pack, and divide the fish and greens among four plates. Top with cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
