Method
 

How to Make Brown Stew Salmon
  1. Begin by rinsing and patting dry the salmon fillets. Season both sides with salt, black pepper, and seasoning salt.
  2. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the seasoned salmon for 5-7 minutes each side until golden brown. Remove and let drain on a wire rack.
  3. Discard excess oil from the skillet, leaving about 2 tablespoons. Lower heat, and sauté onions, garlic, bell peppers, tomatoes, thyme, and scotch bonnet pepper until fragrant.
  4. Pour in hoisin sauce, soy sauce, and chicken broth. Return salmon to the skillet, spoon sauce over it, and simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat and serve immediately, drizzling more sauce on top.
