Brazilian Fish Stew - Moqueca

Personally, this stew is best with a chunky white fish like sea bass and some crusty bread to sop up the remaining liquid.

Made this tonight was delicious add a few more jalapeños for a wee bit more kick will make again..

Amazing, made it with talapia!

Turned out really good. I made it with barramundi. I like a little more spice so I will add 2 jalapenos next time. I served it with rice and some lightly toasted olive sourdough. Didn't really need the rice tbh

Absolutely amazing, used fresh caught striper and put it over rice 10/10

This Brazilian Fish Stew is Elijah approved. With a 7 out of 10 rating. Used some left over Scotch Bonnet 🌶 instead of jalapeño. And served over rice cooked with saffron and cilantro.

Easy and delicious. Added spinach and shrimp.

Used Alaskan cod, added shrimp and used chicken broth in this recipe. So simple, super delicious.

Add 1/4 tsp of red pepper flakes after the coconut milk but before the fish.

Added spinach

Absolutely delicious and a very versatile recipe, you can swap out the fish for chicken or other fish, like salmon or shellfish. The coconut milk makes it a lot less spicy so if you like really spicy I might increase the amount of Thai chili pepper or whatever pepper you used. Otherwise it is a perfect warmth for people who don't like to feel pain while they eat lol.

Added grated carrot. Could add black beans or rice. Used frozen fish pie mix.

My whole family loved this, my brother in law actually thought it was chicken! I used Talapia and Salmon, and kept the recipe the same otherwise. I highly recommend using the coconut milk it is what really makes this dish. I also used lime wedges as garnish and a little squeeze really gave it that bright, fresh taste. If you don't like spicy just use a little less chili or jalapeno but honestly I put a good amount of spice in probably more than the recipe called for and the coconut milk really cools down the spice to a pleasant warmth, just how we like it.
