Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent.

  2. 2

    Add Carrots and Celery

    Add the sliced carrots and chopped celery to the pot. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. 3

    Incorporate Bell Pepper and Tomatoes

    Add the chopped bell pepper and diced tomatoes to the pot. Stir and cook for another 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Fish Stock and Spices

    Pour in the fish stock (or water) and bring the mixture to a boil. Add cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to taste.

  5. 5

    Add Fish Fillets

    Reduce the heat to a simmer and add the fish fillets. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.

  6. 6

    Finish with Lime and Parsley

    Stir in the lime juice and chopped fresh parsley. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Ladle the soup into bowls and serve hot, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
