Step-by-Step Instructions for Brown Stew Salmon
  1. Begin by rinsing the salmon fillets with lemon or lime juice, then pat them dry using paper towels. Season both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and seasoning salt.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a splash of neutral cooking oil. Fry the seasoned salmon fillets for 5-7 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
  3. In the same skillet, add chopped onions, minced garlic, bell peppers, diced tomato, thyme, and scotch bonnet pepper. Sauté for 3-5 minutes until the onions are translucent.
  4. Pour in hoisin sauce, soy sauce, and chicken broth. Stir to combine, then return the browned salmon, spooning sauce over it.
  5. Cover and simmer for 2-3 minutes over low heat, spooning sauce over salmon halfway.
