- You can easily adjust the thickness of the stew by adding more beef broth or water.
- If you don't have fresh tomatoes, you can use canned diced tomatoes, tomato paste, or tomato sauce instead.
- Make sure to gently stir the stew once you add the fish, as over-stirring can break the gentle salmon apart.
- Add some more of your favorite herbs like fresh thyme, fresh dill, or basil.
- You can use half habanero pepper or add some chili flakes if you don't like spicy food. The pepper helps to neutralize the acidity of the tomatoes.
- Alternatively, add more habanero peppers, red pepper flakes, or your favorite hot sauce if you like some heat in your dishes!
- Use any salmon fish such as Atlantic salmon, sockeye salmon, coho salmon, wild salmon, or king salmon.
