Quick Fish Stew

A hearty Mediterranean-style fish stew that comes together in just over 30 minutes. Made with fresh fish, tomatoes, and aromatic herbs.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil.
  • 1 medium onion, finely diced.
  • 3 large garlic cloves, crushed.
  • 2/3 cup fresh parsley, roughly chopped.
  • 1 1/2 cups ripe tomatoes, diced (or 14 oz canned tomatoes).
  • 2 teaspoons tomato paste.
  • 1 cup clam juice.
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine.
  • 1 1/2 pounds white fish chunks (cod, halibut, or snapper).
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano.
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme.
  • 1/8 teaspoon hot sauce.
  • 1 teaspoon salt.
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook diced onions until soft and translucent, about 4 minutes.
  2. Stir in crushed garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Add chopped parsley and cook for 2 more minutes.
  3. Mix in tomatoes and tomato paste. Let it simmer gently for 10 minutes to develop flavors.
  4. Pour in clam juice and white wine. Bring to a gentle simmer.
  5. Add fish chunks and cook for 3-5 minutes until fish flakes easily.
  6. Add herbs, hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Notes

Can add shellfish like shrimp or mussels 2 minutes before the fish.
Shellfish stock can replace clam juice.
Serve hot with crusty bread for dipping.
