Catfish Stew With Potatoes and Diced Onions for a Hearty One-Pot Dinner

By
Catfish Stew With Potatoes and Diced Onions for a Hearty One-Pot Dinner Tender catfish, creamy potatoes, and sweet diced onions make a warm stew with very little fuss.

The result is an easy catfish stew with a savory broth, soft potatoes, and flaky fish in every bowl. Makes: 4 servings Prep time: 20 minutes Cook time: 35 minutes Build Flavor With the Right Catfish Stew Ingredients This recipe uses a light, savory broth that lets the mild flavor of catfish shine.

The goal of a food prepper is to build a safe system that provides useful nutrition during food shortages, severe weather, evacuations, supply disruptions, and financial strain.
