Instructions
 

  • In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent.
  • Add the white wine to the pot and let it simmer for a couple of minutes, allowing the alcohol to cook off.
  • Add the diced tomatoes, carrots, and potatoes to the pot. Stir and cook for about 5 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
  • Pour in the fish or vegetable broth, paprika, dried oregano, bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Gently add the chunks of congrio fish to the pot, making sure they are submerged in the broth. Cook for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  • Remove the bay leaf from the pot and taste the stew. Adjust the seasonings if needed.
  • Serve the Caldillo de congrio hot, garnished with fresh parsley. You can enjoy it with rice or crusty bread on the side.
