Combining firm white fish like cod or halibut with sun-ripened cherry tomatoes, peppers, and courgettes, the stew is lightly infused with a tangy lemon and mustard dressing. Served over a bed of creamy polenta, it offers a satisfying contrast of textures that feels both light and deeply comforting.

How to make Italian Fish and Vegetable Stew
Season fish with salt and pepper. Whisk lemon juice, vinegar, mustard, and 2 tablespoons oil in a medium bowl. Add fish, toss to coat, and chill until ready to use.
Cook polenta according to package directions.
Meanwhile, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Cook garlic, stirring occasionally, until beginning to brown, about 2 minutes. Transfer garlic to a plate.
Cook pepper in same skillet, stirring frequently, until beginning to brown and soften, about 3 minutes. Add courgette, cover, and cook 3 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium-low. Add tomatoes, garlic, fish and dressing, 1 tablespoon slivered basil, and 1 teaspoon chopped oregano; season with salt and pepper. Cover and simmer just until fish is cooked through, about 5 minutes. Discard garlic, if desired.
Divide polenta among bowls. Arrange fish mixture over. Garnish with basil and oregano.
