Preparation
During the 2020 South Beach Wine & Food Festival (SOBEWFF), we supplied our superior fish to some of the country’s best chefs, who then created their own unique recipes using our award-winning product.
Among them, celebrity chef Jernard Wells showcased Kreme Coconut Salmon. Check out the recipe below.
STEP 1
In a small bowl, stir together all seasoning ingredients and set aside.
STEP 2
Season salmon on both sides. Melt 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
STEP 3
Add salmon fillets to pan and cook for 4 minutes, then flip and cook another 4 minutes until salmon is flaky and browned. Transfer salmon to a platter and cover to keep warm.
STEP 4
Add remaining butter to pan over medium-high heat. Once butter is melted, stir in bell peppers, onions, and celery. Sauté for 2 minutes, then add diced tomatoes, coconut milk, and remaining cajun seasoning.
STEP 5
Add shrimp and crawfish. Cover for 5 minutes. Then place salmon on wild rice, pour Creole sauce, and serve.
