Another JAP member was wanting to know what to do with salmon besides patties & got some nice answers but none of them mentioned salmon stew. So I did share the recipe in the forum but now will share here in case others aren't aware of such a thing. Makes a nice Catfish stew as well after you cook the fish and debone it. Some use ketchup in such but I try to avoid that. You can add potatoes, some add cream of potato soup. Keeping it simple though. Hope all enjoys this dish that I grew up.

How To Make salmon stew

  • 1
    Fry up the Bacon of Fat Back. Now you can either chomp down on it now or wait and add it into the pot with the stew. Save some of that grease.
  • 2
    In the saved Grease saute the Onion.
  • 3
    Add the Stewed Tomatoes, Tomato Sauce, & Cream of Mushroom Soup. As needed a little water and if you want it thicker add a dollop of tomato paste. alt & Pepper to taste. You want to slowly bring it a bit of a boil & stir every now & then, then let it simmer at least 30 minutes. Careful to not let the bottom burn, one reason I like to use nonstick for this stew.
  • 4
    Can serve on top of cooked rice. Or just eat it as is. A nice way to stretch a can of salmon.
