This fish stew is amazing.  I got the recipe on Allrecipes.com but changed a lot of the ingredients to what I have and what I like. The original recipe asked for a whole can of coconut milk, that is just too heavy to me.  So I used a portion of it and added chicken stocks. I did not have fresh lime but always have concentrated lemon juice so I used that instead.  I did not have peppers on hand so my recipe has none. Still, this is a an amazing fish stew and will definitely make it again.

 I absolutely love the marinate and is currently pondering what else I can use it on.
