    How to Make Simple Salmon and Kimchi Stew

    1. Season Fish

    Pat the salmon dry with paper towels and season both sides with a pinch of black pepper. Cut into 2-inch chunks and set aside.

    2. Sweat Aromatics

    Heat a pot over medium heat and add the avocado oil. Add the white parts of the scallions, ginger, and garlic to the pot with a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until the aromatics are fragrant and tender, about 3 minutes.

    3. Add Kimchi

    Stir in the kimchi and continue to cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and intensify.

    4. Add Cooking Liquid

    Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer.

    5. Add Fish and Greens

    Add the spinach leaves with a pinch of salt, stirring gently until just wilted. Place the salmon chunks into the stew, spooning some liquid over them. Cover the pot with the lid and simmer over low/medium heat until the salmon is just cooked through, about 3-4 minutes.

    6. Finishing Flavors

    Turn off the heat and stir in the green parts of the scallions. Taste the stew and adjust the seasoning with black pepper or a dash more soy sauce if needed.
