Why This Dish Is Worth Trying
Pro Kitchen Tips
- Add citrus juice gradually to control the level of zestiness.
- Simmer gently to keep the salmon tender and prevent it from breaking apart too much.
Step 1
Rins the salmon and placing it in a container with a lid. Pour the teriyaki marinade over it, cover, and pop it in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, or up to a couple of hours if you have the time.
Step 2
When you’re ready to cook, heat some olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Toss in the chopped onion and sauté until it’s nice and soft, about 2 to 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes and mushrooms next, cooking everything until the veggies soften, which should take another couple of minutes.
Step 3
Now stir in the vinegar, soy sauce, lemon juice, and a splash of hot pepper sauce for a little kick. Sprinkle in the turmeric, cinnamon, and cumin, stirring for a few minutes until the spices smell fragrant and the mixture is well combined.
Step 4
Push the veggies to the sides of the skillet and place the salmon right in the center. Let it cook undisturbed for about 2 and a half minutes, then flip it over and cook for the same amount of time on the other side. Once it’s cooked through, break the salmon into bite-sized pieces and mix it together with the vegetables.
Step 5
Toss in the almonds, sunflower seeds, flax seeds, and cranberries, stirring everything together before adding the goat cheese. Let the cheese melt slightly as you combine it all.
Step 6
For a warm, toasty side, heat your naan bread one at a time in a skillet over medium-high heat. Toast each side for about 15 seconds until it’s lightly browned and warmed through.
Step 7
Serve the salmon stew alongside the naan and enjoy!
