Saffron fish stew with potatoes and green beans

This is simply delicious! And simple to make. I made a few changes which are noted below.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1 teaspoon ground fennel
  • ½ teaspoon ground coriander
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 thyme sprig
  • ½ teaspoon grated fresh orange rind
  • ¼ teaspoon saffron threads, crushed
  • 1 ½ cups water
  • 1 ½ cups clam juice
  • 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • 1 pound flounder fillet, cut into (2-inch) pieces (I used Cod.)
  • 1 (14-ounce) can great Northern beans, rinsed and drained (I used small and diced potatoes from The Little Potato Company and Chopped Green Beans; about 1 cup+.)

DIrections

  • Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onion, fennel, coriander, garlic, and thyme sprig; sauté 5 minutes. Stir in rind and saffron; add water, clam juice, tomatoes, potatoes and green beans. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in salt, fish; cook 5 minutes.

Found the recipe at Cooking Light and The Mediterranean Refresh.
