Add optional white wine and cook for 1 minute to reduce. Add chicken broth, tomato puree, optional saffron, bay leaf, and baby potatoes. Increase heat to bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook potatoes for 12 minutes. Season Monkfish chunks on all sides with salt and pepper Add Monkfish to stew and simmer for 5 minutes.

Tips: You can also sauté chopped chorizo sausage in with the onions to add a meaty note to this dish. To speed up prep you can also swap in a can of rinsed and drained chickpeas for the potatoes. Then just add your Monkfish and simmer for 5 minutes to cook!
