Manhattan style fish stew, also known as Manhattan style fish chowder, makes a great meal on a cold day. Full of fish and other seafood of your choosing, Manhattan style fish stew is rich and satisfying. Follow these steps to serve this delicious stew to your friends and family.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Chopped parsley
  • Oyster crackers or saltine crackers (optional)
  • Crusty bread (optional)
  1. Step 1

    Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to the fish stew to taste.

  2. Step 2

    Stir the pot of fish stew well to combine.

  3. Step 3

    Use a ladle to transfer the fish stew into individual serving bowls. Two ladles of fish stew make a good individual sized serving.

  4. Step 4

    Sprinkle some freshly chopped parsley over the invidual bowls of fish stew. You can use either flat leaf or curly parsley to top the fish stew. The parsley helps the stew have a fresher taste, and it brightens up the appearance of the fish stew itself.

  5. Step 5

    Serve with oyster crackers or saltine crackers, if desired.

  6. Step 6

    Place the individual sized bowls of fish stew alongside a slice of crusty bread, such as French bread, if desired. Diners can dip the crusty bread into their stew to help sop up the stew liquid.

Tips & Warnings
  • If the fish stew seems too thick, you can add some water to the stew to thin it out until you get the desired consistency.
  • If you intend to serve the entire pot of fish stew at one sitting, you can add the freshly chopped parsley directly to the stew pot instead of adding it to the individual bowls of stew. Consider serving the fish stew in an attractive soup tureen at the table.
