Tips & Substitutions

For added flavor, consider incorporating a splash of white wine or lemon juice. If you prefer a bit of heat, add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes.
Serving Suggestions
This dish pairs beautifully with a side of rice or crusty bread to soak up the flavorful tomato sauce. A fresh green salad or steamed vegetables complement the meal well. For a heartier option, consider serving with a side of mashed potatoes or roasted potatoes. It’s a great choice for a weeknight dinner or a casual gathering.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, gently warm in a skillet over low heat, adding a splash of water or broth to prevent drying out. Alternatively, you can microwave in short intervals, covered to retain moisture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen haddock for this recipe?
Yes, you can use frozen haddock fillets. Just make sure to thaw them in the refrigerator overnight before cooking. If using frozen, you may need to extend the cooking time slightly to ensure they are fully cooked and flaky.
What can I substitute for stewed tomatoes?
If you don't have stewed tomatoes, diced tomatoes or crushed tomatoes can work as alternatives. You may want to add a teaspoon of sugar or a splash of vinegar to mimic the sweetness and acidity of stewed tomatoes.
How can I make this dish more flavorful?
To enhance the flavor, consider adding minced garlic or a splash of Worcestershire sauce while sautéing the onions and celery. Fresh herbs like thyme or dill can also elevate the dish and provide a lovely aroma.
