SERVINGS

NOTE:

For a variation, add 1/2 pound of shrimp, mussels, clams, and/or scallops to the stew. If adding shellfish, add them a couple minutes before the fish; they need more time to cook and open.

If you have shellfish stock, you may use 1 cup instead of the clam juice.

Ingredients:

6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 medium onion, chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)

3 large cloves garlic, minced

2/3 cup fresh parsley leaves, chopped

1 1/2 cups fresh chopped tomato OR 1 (14-ounce) can whole or crushed tomatoes with their juices

2 teaspoons tomato paste, optional

1 (8-ounce) bottle clam juice (or 1 cup shellfish stock)

1/2 cup dry white wine (such as Sauvignon blanc)

1 1/2 pounds firm white fish fillets such as halibut, cod, red snapper, or sea bass, cut into 2-inch pieces

Pinch dried oregano

Pinch dried thyme

1/8 teaspoon Tabasco sauce , or more to taste

1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste

1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste

Method:

1.Saute the aromatics in olive oil:

Heat olive oil in a large, thick-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook a minute more. Add parsley and stir 2 minutes. Add tomato and tomato paste, and gently cook for 10 more minutes or so.

2.Finish the soup:

Add clam juice, dry white wine, and fish. Bring to a simmer, and let simmer until the fish is cooked through and easily flakes apart, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add seasoning — salt, pepper, oregano, thyme, and Tabasco. Add more salt and pepper to taste.

3.Serve the stew:

Ladle into individual bowls and serve.

Great served with crusty bread for dipping in the fish stew broth.
