Spicy Fish Stew

Spicy Fish Stew
Recipe Tip
Go for Garlic
Garlic is a phytonutrient, a plant nutrient. It's not necessary for life, but it may have some healthful benefits, and it has lots of flavor.

Ok
I made this with fresh veggies instead of frozen, and I also added extra jalapenos and some fresh ginger, since another reviewer said it was bland. It came out pretty well, and it was very quick

Yuk!!!
DO NOT USE THIS RECIPE! So gross and fishy and not spicy or flavorful in any way. We actually ended up throwing it out. My family and I are pretty open-minded about tastes, but this was putrid. (If you're looking for spicy, try the Healthified Thai Chicken Soup - that was AMAZING!)

A great new way to cook fish
I was thrilled with this recipe, as was my boyfriend. We love all the ginger and garlic, and the vegetables; but next time we'll probably use fresh instead of frozen. They were overcooked and lost much of their flavor by the time the stew was ready to eat. I'm making it again this week!
