We don’t want to brag (okay, maybe a little), but this stew is pretty great. Pan-seared fish served in a savory coconut-tomato broth means bold and unexpected flavors.

Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Prep the vegetables; start the stew

  • Peel the onion, cut in half lengthwise, and thinly slice. 
  • Scrub or peel the sweet potato. Cut the potato into ½-inch pieces.

In a large sauce pot over medium heat, warm 2 to 3 teaspoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the onion, season generously with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the sweet potato and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. 

Add the kale, sun-dried tomatoes, fire-roasted tomatoes, coconut milk, and 1 cup [2 cups] water and season generously with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potato is tender and the kale is wilted, 8 to 10 minutes. While the stew is cooking, prepare the fish.

2

Prep and cook the fish

  • Pat the fish dry with a paper towel; season lightly with salt and pepper.

In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the fish (in a single layer for the pollock) and cook, turning once, until lightly browned and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes for pollock and 6 to 10 minutes for halibut, barramundi, or salmon. Transfer to a plate; if using barramundi, discard the skin. While the fish is cooking, prepare the lemon and finish the stew.

3

Prep the lemon; finish the stew

  • Zest the lemon; cut into wedges for garnish. [Zest both lemons; cut 1 lemon into wedges. Save the remaining zested lemon for another use.]

Remove the stew from the heat and stir in 1 teaspoon [2 tsp] lemon zest. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serve

Transfer the stew to individual bowls and top with the fish. Serve with the lemon wedges.
