SOUTH CAROLINA CATFISH STEW

South Carolina Catfish Stew image

When I was living in South Carolina, catfish stew was a popular dish. This is a delicious spicy, tomato-based stew with bacon and potatoes and onions and spices. It is very simple to make and so good to eat. My husband and I would keep the pot on the stove all day and take multiple trips into the kitchen for refills. I hope you enjoy!

1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed tomato soup
1 (10.5 ounce) can water
1 cup ketchup
1 cup hot pepper sauce (such as Frank's® RedHot)
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon browning sauce
4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
12 ounces bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces, or more to taste
1 large sweet onion, chopped
½ teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon chili powder

Steps:

Combine condensed soup, water, ketchup, hot pepper sauce, Worcestershire sauce, butter, and browning sauce in a stockpot over medium heat. Add potatoes, bacon, and onion. Season with thyme, chili powder, salt, and pepper; bring to a boil.
