Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium, diced yellow onion
• 2 stalks, diced celery
• 1 large, diced carrot
• 3 cloves, minced garlic
• 2 medium, peeled and diced russet potatoes
• 1 14-ounce can diced tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 4 cups vegetable broth
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoons dried thyme
• 1 whole bay leaf
• 1 pound, cut into bite-sized pieces white fish fillets (such as cod or haddock)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional for garnish) parsley
• 4 optional for serving lemon wedges

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large soup pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the diced onion, celery, and carrot to the pot. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened and the onions are translucent.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the diced potatoes, canned diced tomatoes (with juices), and tomato paste. Stir well to combine.

Step 5

Pour in the vegetable broth, then add the smoked paprika, dried thyme, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper. Stir and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover the pot, and cook for 20-25 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.

Step 7

Add the bite-sized pieces of fish fillets to the pot. Gently stir and simmer uncovered for 5-7 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 8

Taste the soup and adjust seasoning if needed.

Step 9

Remove the bay leaf and discard it.

Step 10

Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped parsley, if using. Serve with lemon wedges on the side for a bright burst of flavor.
