It is better to season the salmon with essential seasoning like salt, black pepper, olive oil, and garlic then marinate it for about 15 minutes or more. The salmon will absorb the flavors making it taste best.

Yes, you can use canned salmon but make sure to drain and remove any bone from it. Save the broth and use the broth instead of water in a stew. Don’t marinate the canned salmon, instead, add all the seasoning in a stew.

Notes

Choose the right quality salmon. I prefer wild-caught Salmon to farmed salmon. Although both are good sources of nutrients, wild salmon is much preferable. Wild salmon have more nutrients than farmed salmon.
The longer you marinate the salmon, the better it will taste. Marinate the salmon for 30 minutes if you want the flavors to be completely absorbed.
Adjust the sweetness as per choice. If you don’t like the sweetness of honey, then reduce the amount of honey and ketchup. I am using honey because I like its sweetness balanced with salmon very well.
Choose your favorite herb for better seasoning. Seasoned with parsley, Dill, thyme, or other herbs that you like.
Sear the Salmon from both sides. First, sear the pink meat side of the salmon and then sear the skin side. If you don’t like the skin, you can remove the skin and then sear both sides. As there are good minerals in skins that’s why I am using salmon with skin.
If you are using the frozen Salmon, thaw them first so that it is cooked evenly. If you are cooking frozen salmon directly then it will not cook properly.
