I’ve been thinking about making a fish stew for like forever. Today I found some frozen catfish and shrimp in the walk-in, and I thought: Why not now. This soup comes together quickly, and after you prep your ingredients, you can have it from stovetop to table in under 30 minutes… So yummy. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.
