Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
6 ounces Spanish-style chorizo, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 bulb fennel, trimmed and thinly sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
⅔ cup white wine
2 (14.5 ounce) cans diced tomatoes, with juice
2 (8 ounce) bottles clam juice
24 ounces halibut, skin removed, cut into 1-inch pieces
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, or to taste

Steps:

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat until hot. Cook chorizo, onion, and fennel until onion is soft and translucent and chorizo is browned, about 8 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pour in wine and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, about 2 minutes. Stir in tomatoes with their juice and clam juice. Bring to a simmer and cook until flavors meld, about 10 minutes.
Season halibut with salt and pepper and place in tomato mixture, coving it with sauce. Bring to a simmer. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until fish flakes easily with a fork and is cooked through, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with parsley.
