Prepping the Crispy Skin Salmon

  • If you have time, dab the salmon skin with a towel or paper towel to dry it and place it skin side up in the refrigerator to dry it further for up to an hour.
  • Before cooking the salmon rub a little olive oil on the skin and lightly salt and pepper it.
  • In the Skillet, Heat the oil on medium-high then press the salmon into it with skin down for 7 minutes. Flip the salmon then cook skin up for 1.5 minutes and flip again so skin is down for 30 more seconds and set aside on a plate with skin up.

Making the Pineapple Red Curry

  • In the same skillet, after removing the salmon, Stir-fry the red curry paste until fragrant.
  • Add half of the coconut milk and stir until you reach an even consistency and bring to a boil.
  • Add in the pineapple, Thai basil and bell or sweet peppers if you choose to and add in the rest of the coconut milk.
  • Combine by stiring for just another minute or two and serve with kaffir lime leaves, fresh thai basil and fresh Thai peppers on top.
