White fish Stew recipe

Take this seafood stew recipe which was recently printed in the Boston Globe in a somewhat modified form by Adam Ried, but originally found in White's cookbook 50 Chowders: One Pot Meals - Clam, Corn, & Beyond. I've altered it again slightly to accommodate ingredients we had on-hand and to scale it for our gang. This is a dead simple recipe, easy to prepare for a crowd, and is a great way to enjoy seafood in a dish that satisfies our desire for hearty, one-pot meals during the cold winter months.

Its topping of layered potatoes make it a pretty dish (in a rustic sort of way) to serve straight from the pot at the table. Make sure you've got plenty of warm, crusty bread handy to sop up all the delicious sauce.

Cheers - Steve
