Simple Fish Stew

Here is a surprisingly simple fish stew that works with any white fish (I tend to use tilapia mostly because it's the only fresh white fish Trader Joe's carries.) The key ingredient is clam juice. Not much more to say -- a simple blurb for a simple dish. This is from Simply Recipes.

Ingredients

• 6 Tbsp olive oil
• 1 cup of chopped onions
• 2 large garlic cloves, chopped
• 2/3 cup fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 cup of fresh chopped tomato (about 1 medium sized tomato)
• 2 tsp of tomato paste.
• 8 oz of clam juice (or shellfish stock)
• 2/3 cup dry white wine
• 1 1/2 lb fish fillets (use halibut, cod, sole, red snapper, sea bass), cut into 2-inch pieces
• Touch of dry oregano, Tabasco, thyme, pepper
• Salt

Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in heavy large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add chopped onion and garlic and sauté 4 minutes. Add parsley and stir 2 minutes. Add tomato, tomato paste and cook 2 minutes longer.
2. Add clam juice, dry white wine, and fish and simmer until fish is cooked through, less than 10 minutes. Add seasoning and salt to taste. Ladle into bowls and serve.

Serves 4-6. Eat this.
