Description
Easy Fish Stew Delight is a comforting and flavorful dish featuring tender fish fillets in a rich, aromatic broth with tomatoes, herbs, and vegetables. This healthy and satisfying stew is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a cozy meal on a chilly day.
Ingredients
1 lb white fish fillets (such as cod, haddock, or tilapia), cut into chunks
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 bell pepper, chopped
1 medium potato, diced
1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes
2 cups fish stock (or vegetable broth)
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar (instead of white wine)
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and potato. Cook for 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables begin to soften.
- Add the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Pour in the diced tomatoes, fish stock, and apple cider vinegar. Stir in the smoked paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
- Gently add the fish chunks into the stew, making sure they are submerged in the liquid. Simmer for another 5-7 minutes until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Remove the stew from heat and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
- Serve the stew hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley.
Notes
Leftover fish stew can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
Fish stew can be frozen for up to 3 months. Let the stew cool before transferring to a freezer-safe container.
If the stew has thickened too much during storage, add a little water or fish stock to thin it out when reheating.
For a spicier version, add red pepper flakes or hot sauce to taste.
Feel free to add more vegetables like carrots, celery, or zucchini to the stew.
If using frozen fish, thaw and cut it into chunks before adding to the stew.
