Red curry fish skewers with greens is a flavorful and aromatic dish that combines tender fish with the rich, creamy taste of curry and coconut milk. Perfect for a healthy and delightful meal, these skewers are easy to prepare and serve as an excellent pairing with fresh greens.
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the curry paste, coconut milk, and brown sugar. Stir until well mixed and the sugar has dissolved.
- Add the fish cubes to the bowl with the marinade. Mix gently to ensure all pieces of fish are well coated.
- Cover the bowl with cling film or transfer the fish and marinade to a ziplock bag. Let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour for best results.
- If using a grill, preheat it to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F). If using a grill pan, preheat it on the stove over medium-high heat.
- Thread the marinated fish cubes onto the skewers, leaving a small gap between each piece to ensure even cooking.
- Place the skewers on the preheated grill or grill pan. Cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and cooked through, with nice grill marks.
- While the fish is grilling, prepare the mixed greens or salad mix. Toss them in a bowl with your favorite dressing or keep them plain.
- Serve the fish skewers over a bed of mixed greens.
- Garnish with lime wedges, fresh herbs (like cilantro or basil), and a sprinkle of sesame seeds, if desired.
- Dig in and enjoy your flavorful red curry fish skewers with fresh mixed greens!
Tips:
- Choose a firm white fish like cod, halibut, or tilapia to ensure the skewers hold together well during grilling or cooking.
- Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before using them to prevent burning.
- Marinate the fish in the curry mixture for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to fully infuse.
- Grill the skewers on medium-high heat to achieve a nice char without overcooking the fish.
- Serve immediately with a side of fresh mixed greens for a balanced meal.
