We enjoyed this recipe. We made enough to have leftovers and it was even better the second day.

I've made this recipe many times and it's truly delish.!! I add a small can of clams and more shrimp. This is one of my favorites.

Ditto the other reviewer. I'm not sure what the difference is between mine and those who "loved it", but I do know one thing. Any recipe for fish stew that has SIXTEEN ingredients raises a red flag. Good fish stew is an incredibly simple recipe. With all due respect, this one ain't simple, it has too many ingrediaents and when I made it, it was not good.

This recipe is delicious just as it is! The whole family loves this so much that I have had to make up quadruple batches to pass out to family members.

excellent recipe!!! Had to substitute a few things because I didn't have them at home. Used chicken stock instead of water, added 7 oz more tomatoes, omitted clam juice and sherry, omitted cilantro. Added 8 oz frozen reg, green and yellow peppers. Used 1lb frozen calamari, shrimp and scallops. turned out delicious!!!

My whole family loooooves this recipe. No changes needed. The cilantro is what makes it different and delicious for us, so if you don't like cilantro, I wouldn't recommend this to you. I wouldn't use dried cilantro, either. It just has a completely different flavor. I signed on to Allrecipes just so I could give this a 5-star rating.

I've been making this soup for a few winters now and it's really great, wonderful blend of flavors. It bugs me when people review a recipe but make tons of changes; that being said the ONLY thing I changed was instead of adding red pepper flakes, I used Old Bay Seasoning instead. (I live just a few miles from the Chesapeake Bay, so we have to add Old Bay to anything seafood!) I simmered it for more like 2 hours so the flavors really blended. Delicious!

This was ok, but just kinda boring. The only thing I did differently was to add a shrimp-flavored bouillon cube. Maybe our taste buds were just having an off day but we weren't that impressed. Thanks anyway.

This is a delicious soup. I used chicken broth and still added a bouillon cube, which gave a richer flavor. Cut back 1/2 on the red pepper since my husband doesn't like too much "hot" and added 1/2 lb of scallops as well. Didn't have fresh cilantro so used dried in moderation. I used a good quality rather dry white wine as the sherry adds enough sweetness. Thanks

I'm not quite sure what was different between mine and the other reviewers on here, but no one liked this at all. Even before adding the fish, the smell was not appetizing. Too bad, I was really looking forward to this.

I was hugry for something a little mexican tasting, so used the zesty mexican tomatoes and substituted diced bell pepper for carrots. I always use less oil, sprayed w/olive oil pam and about 1 tb oil. left out the crushed red peppers r/t the spicy tomatoes. My husband never moaned so much during a meal! It was very good, a hint of heat. Could add more at the table if you wanted. The broth was phenomenal! Served w/brown rice to add to the bowl.

I made this last night- it was fantatstic. I added fresh chopped clams, extra cod and a can of sweet corn. I kept the cilantro to a minimum because I am not a big fan, and the stew still had unbelievable flavor. Thanks for the recipe!
