Instructions
Step 1.
Preheat the oven to 400°F with a rack in the center of the oven.
Step 2.
Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Place the salmon skin side down on foil. Pat dry with a paper towel.
Step 3.
Make the curry rub for the salmon: In a small bowl, mix together the sea salt, brown sugar, red curry paste, garlic powder and the oil until fully combined. Spread the curry paste mixture over the salmon and place it in the oven until it easily flakes with a fork, about 8-10 minutes.
Step 4.
Add the fish sauce, brown sugar, onions and peppers. Allow to simmer until the onions and bell peppers are tender, about 15 minutes. Turn off the heat.
Step 5.
Add the lime juice and fresh basil to the pan and stir to combine.
Step 6.
Remove the salmon from the oven. Using a spatula, slide the cooked salmon away from the skin and transfer it to the curry sauce, spooning the sauce over the salmon.
Step 7.
Top the salmon curry with green onions, cilantro and extra basil if desired. Serve family style along with cooked rice.
