Ingredients

1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk (I used lite)
1 ½ cups chicken broth
¼ cup cilantro, plus more for serving
2 cups steamed jasmine rice (optional)
¼ cup green onions, sliced on the bias, plus more for serving
4 wild Alaska halibut fillets
1 half of a lime, juiced (cut the other half into wedges for serving)
lime wedges
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
3 shallots, diced
24 ounces fresh spinach

Cooking Instructions

  1. 01

    Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a deep skillet over medium heat.

  2. 02

    Add the spinach to the pan and season it generously with salt and pepper. Toss the spinach in the olive oil until the spinach just begins to wilt down.

  3. 03

    Remove the spinach to a bowl and set aside. Wipe out the moisture from the pan and return the skillet to the heat.

  4. 04

    Add the other tablespoon of olive oil to the pan.

  5. 05

    Saute the shallots in the oil for 2-3 minutes until tender and fragrant.

  6. 06

    Add the curry paste, followed by the chicken broth, coconut milk, and sugar. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and allow the curry to reduce by half. Taste for seasoning and add salt, if needed. Season the halibut fillets lightly with salt.

  7. 07

    Place the halibut fillets into the broth, spooning some of the broth over the top. Cover the pan and allow the fillets to poach about 5 minutes (depending on the thickness of your fillets), or until cooked to medium rare to medium, being very careful not to overcook (halibut dries out quickly and we want to avoid that). Distribute the sautéed spinach evenly between 4 serving bowls. Carefully place a halibut fillet on top of each bed of spinach. To the curry broth, stir in the cilantro, green onion, and the juice of half a lime. Ladle the broth over each of the halibut fillets.

  8. 08

    Garnish with fresh cilantro and green onion.

The Caprese Salad Skewers recipe was a triumph! I prepared them for a party's barbecue and everyone loved them. The basil was so aromatic, the mozzarella so fresh, and the skewers were the perfect size and an appropriate.
