Cut the salmon into 4 equal pieces. Pat both sides dry with paper towel and season with salt & pepper.
Add the oil and butter to a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the salmon for 3 mins minutes. Flip it and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Take the salmon out of the pan and transfer it to a plate.
Add the onion to the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes (should be getting lightly browned), then stir in the garlic and bell peppers and cook for 1 minute.
Add in the fish sauce, ginger slices , jalapeño slices, coconut milk, sugar and let it gently simmer for about 5 minutes or so. Stir in the lime juice. Add the salmon and cook for another 5-8 minutes. Season with more salt & pepper as needed. Sprinkle with the basil and cilantro and serve over white rice. Cheers!
