Cook's Tips:
As You Fish: You can make this recipe with any kind of fish you like—or even chicken breasts.
Stir-Fry Swap: Instead of broccoli, snap peas, bell pepper, and carrots, you can use green beans, yellow squash, or zucchini for a different take.
Seasoning Swap: If you’re out of Savory Maple Spice, you can use Asian Seasoning Mix or Jamaican Jerk Rub instead.
