Crispy Salmon Skin with Curry Sauce

Crispy Salmon Skin with Curry Sauce | Plaid and PaleoA couple weeks ago I went to one of my favorite restaurants and finally decided to branch out from my go-to entree. I am so happy I did. I have been trying to eat more seafood and went for the salmon. I’ve never ate salmon where the skin was featured. Let me tell you. I will not be wasting salmon skin ever again! This crispy salmon skin with curry sauce is my take on the restaurant’s dish. The crispy skin adds an extra crunch and salty flavor which pairs perfectly with the spicy curry sauce.

Has anyone else become a complete waste of space since Friends was added to Netflix? I am hoping it is not just me. I love actually watching the show in order. It is so weird to see scenes you’ve missed even though you feel you have seen the whole series multiple times! Netflix has been playing a sick joke. After just 2 episodes, Netflix asked “are you still watching?” Of course I am still watching. Ok I swear I did a ton of productive things this weekend, including making this crispy salmon skin with curry sauce that you should go make!

  1. Yum, I’m excited about this recipe since I have heard for years about how good salmon skin is for you but I could never bring myself to enjoy it. I eat it begrudgingly sometimes because I want my kids to eat theirs but if I could LIKE it? Well, that would be a game changer. So I will be trying this out for sure!
