Turmeric Salmon With Coconut Crisp

This vibrant turmeric salmon with coconut crisp is a standout heart-healthy dish that combines golden spices with fresh, seasonal greens. The salmon is gently roasted on a bed of Swiss chard, allowing the juices to mingle with the ginger and shallots for a deep, aromatic flavour. By slow-baking the fish at a lower temperature, the fillet remains incredibly moist and tender, providing a beautiful contrast to the bold, earthy notes of the turmeric oil.

A perfect choice for a nutritious midweek meal or a sophisticated weekend lunch, this recipe is packed with anti-inflammatory ingredients and essential omega-3 fatty acids. The finishing touch is a fragrant, crunchy topping made from toasted coconut flakes, garlic, and a hint of chilli. Serve this colourful one-pan wonder on its own or with a side of fluffy quinoa for a complete and wholesome dinner.

  • 1/2 teaspoons ground turmeric

  • 1 (1 1/2-lb.) skinless salmon fillet, preferably centre cut

How to make Turmeric Salmon With Coconut Crisp

Preheat oven to 149°C. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high. Add Swiss chard ribs and stems, shallot, and ginger and cook, stirring occasionally, until shallot is softened but not browned, about 3 minutes. Add Swiss chard leaves and cook, stirring, until partly wilted, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and season with salt.

Combine 2 tablespoons oil and turmeric in a small bowl. Place salmon, skin side down, on top of greens in skillet. Season salmon with salt and coat with turmeric oil. Transfer to oven and bake until fillet is just opaque in the centre and flakes easily and greens are tender, 25–30 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a small skillet over medium. Add garlic, chilli, and coconut flakes and cook, stirring often, until garlic and coconut turn golden, about 5 minutes. Transfer coconut crisp to a small bowl and season lightly with salt.

Season fish and greens with pepper; serve with coconut crisp for topping.
