This halibut green curry is the perfect combination of bright flavors tucked in a creamy, spicy sauce. It's the perfect use for larger halibut filets or any white-fleshed fish!
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add ginger, garlic, and curry paste. Stir frequently until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
Add coconut milk and fish sauce.
Bring to a simmer and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove garlic and ginger with a slotted spoon or small mesh strainer.
Add zucchini and bell pepper. Stir to combine and simmer for 3 minutes.
Add halibut pieces and stir to combine. Simmer for 4-5 minutes.
Add lime juice, Swiss chard, and ½ cup basil. Stir to combine and simmer an additional 1 minute or until chard is slightly wilted.
Serve over sticky rice and top with chile slices, green onion, and remaining Thai basil, if desired. Enjoy!
Notes
To get lines in the zucchini skin, use a citrus zester to remove strips of the skin. Then, cut the zucchini in half lengthwise and slice diagonally.
You can change up the vegetables in this recipe however you please!
Vegetables in curry often cook quicker than you expect. Err on the side of less cooking time to have perfectly crisp-tender veggies. They will continue to cook while served over a bowl of hot rice.
