Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 14.5 ounces canned diced tomatoes
- 4 cups vegetable or fish stock
- 1 large russet potato, peeled and diced
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 pound white fish fillets (such as cod or halibut), cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 4 lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic, red bell pepper, and celery. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
Add the diced tomatoes (with their juices), vegetable or fish stock, diced potato, bay leaf, smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Gently add the white fish pieces to the stew. Cover and simmer for another 7-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Taste the stew and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.
Remove the bay leaf and stir in the chopped fresh parsley.
Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side for a refreshing squeeze of citrus. Pair with crusty bread for a complete meal.
