Only 6 ingredients are needed for this quick and easy (and delicious!) curry salmon recipe. Fifteen minutes, from start to finish.

When I want to make an Indian-inspired recipe without a lot of fuss, I usually turn to my trusty jar of curry paste. If you are a frequent visitor here, you likely saw it used in my favorite slow cooker vegetable curry, my one-pot curry and quinoa dish, and these curry Brussels sprouts.

Broiled salmon fillets is one of those meals that can come together VERY quickly with very few ingredients needed for a burst of flavor, and this broiled curry salmon recipe is a perfect example of that. If curry isn't really your thing but you're dying for an easy salmon recipe, try this maple Dijon salmon or this spiced rubbed lime salmon.

While the broiler is preheating, season the salmon with a little salt, then brush it with a mixture of curry paste, lime juice and olive oil. The salmon fillets I used were on the thin side and only took 5 minutes to cook. If the fillets are a little thicker, an additional minute or two might be needed. But do your best to avoid overcooking the salmon so it doesn't dry out.

Serve it with a side of brown rice or quinoa (if you've frozen some cooked quinoa, this would be a good time to pull out a couple of portions), along with some steamed veggies or a green salad.
