Equipment

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz cod fillets
  • 1/4 cup red onions (diced)
  • 1/4 cup green onions (chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons garlic cloves (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh ginger (minced)
  • 1 yellow bell pepper (sliced)
  • 4 fresh basil leaves
  • 2 tablespoons red curry paste
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth (or water, if needed to thin out the sauce)
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the red onions, green onions, garlic, and ginger. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and softened.
  • Stir in the Thai red curry paste, mixing well to coat the aromatics.
  • Pour in the coconut milk and stir until combined. Add the fish sauce for that umami punch.
  • Gently place the cod fillets into the coconut broth. Add the sliced yellow bell peppers and fresh basil leaves.
  • Cover the skillet with a lid and reduce the heat to medium-low. Let it simmer gently for 10-12 minutes until the cod is cooked through and flaky.
  • If the sauce thickens too much, add a splash of water or vegetable broth to loosen it up.
  • Finish with a squeeze of fresh lime juice and garnish with extra basil leaves. Serve over fluffy rice or slurp-worthy rice noodles
