Cod is a great fish to choose for stew. Its delicate, mild flavor won’t overwhelm the other ingredients, and when cooked it breaks into large flakes.
Ingredients
Uncooked potato
4 large, peeled and cut into chunks
Onion
3 medium, finely chopped
Celery
2 rib(s), medium, diced
Red bell pepper
1 medium, seeded and finely chopped
Garlic
3 clove(s), minced
Dried thyme
1 tsp
Table salt
½ tsp
Bay leaf
1 leaf/leaves
Water
4 cup(s)
Uncooked Pacific cod
1¼ pound(s), skinless fillets, cut into 2-inch chunks
Fresh parsley
¼ cup(s), fresh, chopped
Fresh lemon juice
2 Tbsp
Black pepper
½ tsp, freshly ground
Instructions
1
Combine the potatoes, onions, celery, bell pepper, garlic, thyme, salt, and bay leaf with the water in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the potatoes are just tender, 15–20 minutes. Transfer 2 cups of the vegetables and about 1 cup of the cooking liquid to a food processor or blender, and puree.

Return the puree to the saucepan and bring to a simmer. Add the cod and cook until just opaque in the center, 3–4 minutes. Gently stir in the parsley, lemon juice, and pepper; discard the bay leaf. Yields 2 cups per serving.
