02 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
03 - 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
04 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
05 - 1/2 teaspoon all-purpose seasoning or seasoning salt

06 - 1/2 tomato, sliced or diced
07 - 1/4 scotch bonnet pepper
08 - 2 garlic cloves, minced
09 - 1/4 red bell pepper, cut into strips or cubes
10 - 1/4 green bell pepper, cut into strips or cubes
11 - 2-3 fresh thyme sprigs, coarsely chopped

→ Sauce

13 - 2 teaspoons brown sugar
14 - 1 tablespoon soy sauce
15 - 60 ml vegetable or chicken broth
16 - 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
17 - 240 ml neutral cooking oil for frying

# Instructions:

01 - Clean the salmon with lime or lemon and cold water. Pat dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder and all-purpose seasoning.
02 - Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the salmon for 5-7 minutes per side until a crispy golden crust forms. Remove and set aside on a wire rack.
03 - Discard most of the oil, reserving 2 tablespoons in the pan. Add onion, garlic, tomatoes, thyme, scotch bonnet, and bell peppers. Sauté on medium heat until fragrant.
04 - Stir in hoisin sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar and broth. Return salmon fillets to the pan. Spoon sauce over the fish and simmer with lid partially on for 2-3 minutes. Before serving, spoon additional reduced sauce over the salmon.

# Notes:

01 - This Jamaican-inspired dish combines the rich flavors of brown stew with tender salmon fillets.
02 - For a spicier version, increase the amount of scotch bonnet pepper.
