HALIBUT GREEN CURRY

Chlorophyll is the green pigment found in all plants. Not only is it imperative for plant growth, but it may also provide antioxidant and immunity help for us. Lutein is part of the carotenoid family (responsible for yellow, red and orange pigments in fruits and vegetables), but it cleverly hides behind the green mask of chlorophyll in kale, which is one of the only good food sources available. Lutein may also be good for eye health. It needs a little fat to be absorbed best by the body (that's no problem with this dish, as the coconut milk will do the trick).

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup packed fresh cilantro leaves, plus more for garnish
1 cup packed fresh mint leaves
1/3 cup coconut milk
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
2 teaspoons light brown sugar
Juice of 1 lime, plus wedges for serving
1 small clove garlic
One 2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
1/2 serrano pepper, seeded
Kosher salt
1 large bunch kale, stemmed, washed and torn into bite-size pieces
Four 6-ounce fillets halibut, about 1/2-inch thick (skin removed)

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.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and prevent any mishaps.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your dish. Whenever possible, use fresh, in-season produce and seafood.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing the halibut, make sure you don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the fish from cooking evenly and will result in steamed fish instead of seared fish.
  • Cook the halibut until it is just cooked through: Halibut is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it until it is just cooked through. Overcooked halibut will be tough and dry.
  • Use a flavorful curry paste: The curry paste is what gives this dish its flavor, so make sure you use a good quality paste. You can find curry paste at most Asian grocery stores or online.
  • Add vegetables to the curry: Vegetables add color, texture, and nutrients to the curry. You can use any vegetables you like, but some good options include broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, and bamboo shoots.
  • Serve the curry with rice or noodles: Curry is traditionally served with rice or noodles. You can use any type of rice or noodles you like, but jasmine rice or basmati rice are good choices.

Conclusion:

Halibut green curry is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of flavorful curry paste, tender halibut, and fresh vegetables makes this dish a winner. Serve it with rice or noodles for a complete meal.
