Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the garlic, carrot, celery, and red bell pepper. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
Add the tomato paste to the pot, stirring well to coat the vegetables.
Pour in the canned diced tomatoes, including the juice, and the vegetable stock.
Add in the bay leaf, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together.
Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 20 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
Carefully add the fish pieces to the pot, making sure they are submerged in the liquid.
Cover and simmer for another 10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice.
Discard the bay leaf and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy your hearty Mediterranean fish stew!
