Notes
This recipe is completely adaptable to what you can find at your store as well as your flavor preferences. Select ingredients and amounts based on how many people you’re serving, what they prefer, as well as how adventurous they are.
Please be sure to follow all FDA food safety practices. If the board will be sitting out, it’s a great idea to serve the fish on ice to keep it cold. Throw out food that's been left out for more than two hours.
Make ahead: You want the fish to be as fresh as possible, so don’t open the cans until you’re ready to serve. But the veggies can be chopped a few days before and stored in zip top bags in the fridge.
If you have leftovers, you can to pack everything back up, and store it in fresh clean containers in the fridge. Do not store leftover tinned fish in their open cans.
