This coconut curry salmon with broccoli uses Thai red chili paste for beautiful color and depth of flavor. You can make it spicier by using hot curry powder on the filets, and extra red pepper flakes in the sauce. We like this served in a bowl with rice. Use riced cauliflower for an extra serving of veggies, if you prefer.
