2️⃣ Add the Veggies
Throw in the red bell pepper and cook for another 3 minutes.
3️⃣ Build the Broth
Pour in diced tomatoes, fish stock (or broth), white wine, thyme, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir well, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
4️⃣ Add the Pacific Cod
Gently place the cod pieces into the broth. Cover and let them cook for about 10 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
5️⃣ Final Touches
Stir in the frozen peas and fresh parsley. Cook for another 2–3 minutes until the peas are heated through.
6️⃣ Serve & Enjoy!

💡 Cooking Tips for the Best Fish Stew
✔️ Use Fresh or Frozen Cod – If using frozen fish, thaw completely before cooking.
✔️ Don't Overcook the Fish – Pacific cod cooks quickly—overcooking can make it rubbery.
✔️ Want a Thicker Broth? – Add a spoonful of tomato paste or blend half the stew.
✔️ Make It Spicier – Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili flakes!
🥶 Storing & Reheating Fish Stew
How to Store Leftovers:
✔️ Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
✔️ Freeze for up to 2 months—just leave out the peas and add them when reheating.
How to Reheat:
✔️ Stovetop: Simmer on low until warmed through.
✔️ Microwave: Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between.
🔥 Pro Tip: Add a splash of water or broth when reheating to refresh the flavors!
