Coconut Salmon Recipes

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, and mix in the honey, brown, sugar, and coconut. Bring to a boil, and remove from heat. Cool slightly, and transfer to a large bowl. Place the salmon in the bowl, and turn to coat. Cover, and marinate at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Spread enough of the marinade mixture in a baking dish to coat the bottom. Arrange the salmon in the dish, and pour some of the marinade over the top, being sure to get some of the coconut on the top.
• Bake 25 minutes in the preheated oven, basting occasionally with the remaining marinade, until the salmon is flaked easily with a fork. Discard any leftover marinade, or bring to a boil, cook for 5 minutes, and spoon over salmon.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Place salmon fillets on a non-stick baking pan. Brush juice on salmon.
• In a shallow dish, combine panko, coconut, salt and pepper. Dredge each fillet in the mixture and return to baking pan. Spread leftover crumbs on top of each fillet. Coat with cooking spray.
• Bake for 12 to 15 minutes. If desired, put under broiler until crust is golden brown.

Steps:

• For the sauce:
• Put 2 tablespoons coconut oil into a large skillet over low-med heat and then add ginger. Saute for 30 seconds and then the fennel seeds, cardamom seeds, brown mustard, seeds and ground coriander; cook for 10 seconds. Add the tomatoes and cook for 3 minutes, stirring well. Pour in the coconut milk and simmer for about 15 minutes, until sauce is thickened. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper, if necessary.
• For the salmon:
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons coconut oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When it is hot, season the salmon fillets with 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander and a pinch of salt and pepper and then sear them on each side for 7 to 8 minutes, until they are just cooked through. Put the salmon on a plate and ladle some sauce over it.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375ºF.
• Blend first 4 ingredients and 1 tsp. curry powder in blender until smooth. Place fish, skin-sides down, on baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray. Mix lime juice and remaining curry powder; brush onto fish.
• Bake 8 to 10 min. or until fish flakes easily with fork. Meanwhile, heat oil in large skillet on medium heat. Add bell peppers, tomatoes and onions; cook 5 min., stirring frequently. Stir in coconut mixture; cook 5 min. or until heated through, stirring frequently. Stir in cilantro.
• Serve fish with sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Place fillets in a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Spread mayonnaise over fillets; sprinkle with jerk seasoning., Bake until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork, 18-22 minutes. Meanwhile, for sauce, in a small saucepan, combine sour cream, cream of coconut, and lime zest and juice; cook and stir over medium-low heat until blended., Drizzle fillets with sauce; sprinkle with coconut.

Steps:

• Put the fish steaks in a fairly shallow ovenproof dish with a lid, into which they fit quite closely.
• Scatter the ginger, garlic, tomato, chili and yellow pepper over and around the fish and the cardamom pods in between.
• Empty the coconut milk into a separate bowl, add a good sprinkling of sea salt and gradually stir in the lime juice. Pour the mixture gently over and around the fish and cover the dish.
• Preheat the oven to 150C/300F/Gas 2. Put the dish on the center shelf and cook for 40-50 minutes, until the fish is lightly done. To discover this insert a small, sharp knife into the center of one of the steaks - if the flesh is slightly darker pink in the center it will be perfectly cooked. Remove from the oven.
• Before serving scatter the mint leaves on top.

Steps:

• In a large skillet big enough to hold the fish, combine the coconut milk, orange juice, orange zest, fish sauce, chile sauce, garlic, ginger, mint and cilantro and mix well.
• Add fish and make sure it is submerged. If it is not submerged, add equal amounts of coconut milk and orange juice.
• Place the pan over medium heat and bring to a very low simmer.
• Cover the pan and decrease heat to low. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes.
• If the fish does not flake when prodded with a fork, cover pan and simmer for 2 minutes more. (If fish is not submerged, turn fish over after 5 minutes of cooking.).
• Gently remove fish and place on dinner plates. Spoon sauce around sides and serve at once.
