2 medium stalks celery, diced
1/2 large bell pepper, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
28 oz (794 g) can fire roasted crushed tomatoes
3/4 c (6 fl oz/ 177 ml) seafood broth or stock
2 tbsp hot sauce (I used Frank’s)
1 tbsp coconut aminos

Instructions

In a large soup pot, heat the avocado oil over medium. When hot, add in the onion, celery, bell pepper, and garlic and sauté until just translucent.
Add the entire can of fire roasted tomatoes, the seafood stock, and all the remaining seasonings and stir well.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer 30 minutes, with the lid on, stirring occasionally to keep the bottom from scorching.
Add the catfish chunks and continue to simmer an additional 10 minutes, or until the catfish chunks are cooked through and flaky.
Remove from the heat, stir well, and serve hot garnished with sliced green onion and chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
