Traditionally, this bouillabaisse-like stew is rich with tomatoes and chunks of wild-caught freshwater fish such as perch, tench, eel, trout, and pike. While wild-caught is best, fillets of farmed freshwater fishincluding tilapia, catfish, trout, and arctic charalso work well. Ingredients:
2 pound mixed freshwater fish fillets, cut into 2-inch pieces |
1/2 cup chopped onion |
1/2 cup chopped celery |
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped |
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil |
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley |
1 cup dry white wine (preferably italian such as grechetto, vermentino, or trebbiano) |
