We’ll be baking our fish in a foil fish packet, so tear two sheets of foil that will be large enough to fit fish. Place one sheet of foil onto a sheet pan and then fish on top of foil. Sprinkle fish with some salt and pepper and then drizzle with first part of green curry sauce (portion for the salmon). Cover with second sheet of foil and roll up the sides to form a sealed packet.
Bake fish for 10 to 15 minutes depending on thickness of salmon.
While salmon bakes, heat up a skillet or saute pan over medium-high heat. Add green curry sauce (portion for the kale). When sauce is simmering, add red peppers and saute for 3 to 4 minutes, until tender but still crunchy. Add kale and cook until greens are wilted, another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and finish with lime juice.
Serve salmon with second part of curry sauce, lime wedges and veggies on the side.
