Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Thai Coconut Curry Fish Fillets.
Step 1
Begin by warming a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Step 2
Once the oil shimmers, toss in finely chopped shallots and sauté them until they soften and turn translucent, which should take about two minutes.
Step 3
Next, introduce the red curry paste, followed by a generous pour of coconut milk, chicken broth, and a sprinkle of white sugar.
Step 4
Allow this vibrant mixture to come to a gentle simmer, then lower the heat and let it bubble away until the sauce reduces by half, roughly ten minutes.
Step 5
Taste the sauce and adjust with salt if desired.
Step 6
Now, season your fish fillets with a pinch of salt and gently nestle them into the skillet, spooning some of that luscious curry sauce over the top.
Step 7
Cover the skillet and let it work its magic for about five minutes, or until the fish flakes effortlessly with a fork and is perfectly cooked.
Step 8
Once done, lift the fish from the skillet and stir in freshly chopped cilantro, sliced green onions, and a splash of lime juice into the curry sauce.
Step 9
Serve the fish adorned with the aromatic curry sauce, accompanied by lime wedges for an extra zing.
Step 10
Enjoy this delightful dish that brings a taste of the tropics to your table!.
