Ingredients
  

4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)

1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk

2 tablespoons red curry paste

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

1 tablespoon lime juice

1 tablespoon soy sauce

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Cooked jasmine rice, for serving

Instructions
 

In a medium saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for about 1 minute until fragrant.

    Stir in the red curry paste and cook for another minute, allowing the flavors to meld together.

      Pour in the coconut milk, lime juice, and soy sauce. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let it cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

        Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper on both sides. In a separate skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat.

          Once the butter is melted and bubbling, add the salmon fillets, skin-side down. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

            Pour the coconut curry sauce over the salmon fillets in the skillet and let them simmer together for another 2 minutes.

              Serve the salmon over a bed of jasmine rice, spooning additional coconut curry sauce on top.

                Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
