I am always looking for different fish preparations so we don't tire of our favorites and can mix it up.  With any white fish you like, tilapia, cod, haddock etc, this is a concoction that is a real comfort dish with tons and tons of Mexican influenced flavour. We love it!!

In a shallow pan or dish, squeeze the juice of 2 limes over any white fish fillets you enjoy.  Let them soak while you prepare the rest of the recipe.

Par boil 2-3 small diced potatoes and keep the water once done.

In a fairly deep pan, sautee:
1 large diced onion
1 pepper, any kind you enjoy, red, orange, green...mix it up
1 or 2 jalapeno pepper, diced
A good handful of chopped cilantro, stems and leaves
3 cloves of chopped garlic (do this at the end so it doesn't burn)
1 tablespoon of chili powder
1 tsp.of chipotle powder
Small can of diced tomatoes, or 2 huge spoonfuls- decide the amount of tomato to taste

To this, add a small can of white navy beans, or any beans you like. Rinse them first!

Once this is simmering and the flavours have combined, add the fish in pieces, spooning the sauce over it, and cover your pan so the fish can poach in the sauce. About 10 min or so on a simmer.

Once the fish is opaque, it is cooked.

Serve this stew in a bowl and garnish with avocado slices, chopped cilantro and a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt.  Spritz lime over top for that extra freshness and zest.

This is really fantastic, bold but comforting.  Pretty "clean" eating aside from the baguette you will need to slop up the ZUMI!!!
