Instructions
- 1
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook onion until golden, 6 minutes. Add garlic, paprika, and cumin and cook 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and cook until broken down, 4 minutes.
- 2
Add wine and let it reduce by half. Add fish broth and bring to a simmer.
- 3
Add potato and carrot slices and simmer for 12 minutes until nearly tender. Season the fish steaks with salt and pepper and nestle them into the vegetables in the broth.

Simmer gently for 8–10 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Do not boil vigorously — gentle heat keeps the fish tender. Serve in deep bowls with fresh cilantro and lemon wedges.
