Dr. Seuss-Inspired Red Fish/Blue Fish

In honor of Dr. Seuss Day we made not one, but two, fish dishes. First, pieces of flaky cod fish and fresh grape tomatoes are nestled in a red curry sauce, then a blueberry-glazed salmon is plated up with whimsical blue potatoes for a Dr. Seuss-inspired dinner!

How to Make It

1. Step
Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).
2. Step
Transfer the cod fillets to a plate and pat dry with a paper towel. Season on both sides with the salt, pepper, and paprika and rub to fully coat the fish. Set aside.
3. Step
Melt the coconut oil in a medium oven-safe pan over medium-high heat. Add the ginger and curry paste and toast, stirring often with a wooden spoon, until the curry is dark red and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
4. Step
Add the grape tomatoes and toss to coat in the curry mixture. Add the coconut cream and continue to cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes begin to burst, 8–10 minutes.
5. Step
Nestle the cod fillets in the tomato curry mixture and transfer the pan to the oven. Bake for 20–22 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and easily flaked with a fork.
6. Step
Remove the fish from the tomato curry mixture, transfer to a clean plate, and tent with foil to keep warm.
7. Step
Return the pan to medium heat, stir in the lime juice, and simmer for 2 minutes, until thickened slightly.
8. Step
Divide the tomato curry mixture between 2 plates and top with the cod. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately.
9. Step
Enjoy!
