If you have been reading my blog for a while, or if you know me, you know that I'm not a fan of salmon. For some reason it's the only fish I just can't stand.
When I saw this recipe in Oprah's magazine, I thought I would give it a try. I like coconut, and I like spicy, and I thought that maybe the sauce would mask the salmon enough for me to love it. Unfortunately I was wrong, but my family loved it so I thought I would still post the recipe for you (weird) salmon-lovers out there.
Salmon With Spicy Coconut Sauce
1 T veg oil
4 6oz salmon fillets
salt & pepper
1 red onion thinly sliced
1/4 tsp cayenne
1 can coconut milk
1 T lemon juice
1 roasted red pepper, sliced
1 head bok choy, chopped
fresh basil
In skillet over medium-high, heat oil. Season salmon with salt & pepper and cook 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Cook onion with a pinch of salt & cayenne, stirring, until golden, 6 minutes. Add milk & lemon juice and simmer, stirring, 10 minutes. Add next 2 ingredients and simmer 1 minute. Return salmon to pan and simmer 2 minutes. Season to taste and garnish with basil.
