This recipe calls for a mussels, littlenecks, and any firm white fish. Some suggestions for fish include (but are not limited to) sea robin, monkfish, haddock, black sea bass, halibut, tautog, pollock, or John dory. You could also add in additional shellfish such as slipper limpets (an Eating with the Ecosystem favorite species. We suggest briefly steaming them and removing them from the shell before adding them to the stew).

This recipe is honestly one of my new favorites! It feel rich and decadent and is easy to make. This recipe is perfect for any type of local flounder such as grey sole, winter flounder, yellowtail flounder, summer flounder, american plaice, or dabs! I’ve also tried it with tautog and black sea bass and baked it vs broiling it and kept it in the oven for longer until the fish was flakey when I poked a fork into it. Make sure you have lots of bread for dipping in the sauce too.
