How to Make Curried Monkfish

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add 1 medium chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add 2 minced cloves of garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  4. Add 1 pound of monkfish fillets (cut into 1-inch pieces) to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the fish loses its translucency and is opaque throughout, about 3-5 minutes. Do not overcook.
  6. Stir in 2 tablespoons of curry powder and the entire 14.5 ounce can of diced tomatoes (undrained).
  7. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until heated through and the sauce has slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
  8. Reduce the heat to low and stir in 1/2 cup of plain yogurt.
  9. Heat gently for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Do not boil, as this can curdle the yogurt.
  10. Serve hot with rice or naan bread. Enjoy!
