Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Ingredients
Gather all ingredients and ensure the black cod is thawed if frozen.
Sear the Black Cod
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Season the black cod fillets with salt and black pepper. Once the oil is hot, add the cod fillets and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the fillets from the skillet and set aside.
Make the Curry Sauce
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the red curry paste. Stir for about 1 minute until fragrant. Then, pour in the coconut milk and bring to a simmer, stirring well to combine the curry paste with the coconut milk.
Add Pineapple and Basil
Add the pineapple chunks to the curry sauce and simmer for another 5 minutes. Finally, stir in the fresh basil leaves and return the seared black cod to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until everything is heated through.
Serve
Serve the black cod curry hot over steamed rice or with bread, garnished with extra basil if desired.
