Curry-Rubbed Salmon with Napa Slaw

 


Broiling is a good way to brown the salmon without adding fat. For a golden color and crisp finish, don’t turn the fish while it is under the broiler; it will still cook all the way through without this extra step.

 

Ingredients :

 

  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup brown basmati rice
  • Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
  • ½ head napa cabbage (1 pound), thinly sliced crosswise
  • 1 pound carrots, peeled and coarsely grated
  • ½ cup loosely packed fresh mint leaves
  • ¼ cup fresh lime juice (from 2 to 3 limes), plus lime wedges for serving
  • 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
  • 4 skinless wild Alaskan salmon fillets (about 6 ounces each)
  • 2 teaspoons curry powder

 

Method :

 

  1. In a large saucepan, bring the water to a boil; add the rice and ½ teaspoon salt. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook until rice is tender and has absorbed all liquid, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from heat; let stand, covered, 10 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine cabbage, carrots, mint, lime juice, oil, and ½ teaspoon salt; season with pepper. Toss to combine.
  3. Heat broiler, with rack set 4 inches from heat source. While rice is standing, place salmon on a broiler pan or rimmed baking sheet. Rub fillets with curry powder and ½ teaspoon salt, dividing evenly; season with pepper. Broil until just cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes.
  4. Divide salmon and cabbage mixture among four plates. Fluff rice with a fork and serve alongside.
