Fish coconut curry is a quick and delicious one pot meal that takes less than 30 minutes to make. This is perfect for a weeknight meal and is gluten free and keto/low carb friendly.

You can make this dish using a variety of seafood. I like to use cod or shrimp in this meal but scallops or another type of fish will work great in this recipe too. The sauce is a creamy red coconut curry that is mild in spice (heat) but if you like it spicier then just increase the amount of red pepper flakes or add jalapeno into the recipe.

I make this low carb and gluten free by using Palmini noodles, although angel hair or spaghetti noodles may be substituted. This coconut curry with fish would also be delicious served on top of basmati rice or cauliflower rice.

FISH COCONUT CURRY

This is a red coconut curry broth for any type of white fish. Cod, grouper, snapper, tilapia, halibut or mahi would work great in this recipe as well as lobster or shrimp. This is a mild and creamy red curry sauce but you can make it spicier by increasing the amount of red pepper flakes. Serve this with angel hair pasta or Palmini for a low carb meal.

This recipe is 6 net carbs (without pasta), reduce the amount of tomatoes to lower the carbs.
