Zuppa Di Pesce

The best thing about this fish soup recipe is that you can sub out any fish that you want with what fish I used. It can be made with just the Scungilli too. A nice slab of any white fish cut in chunks will cook great in the sauce. The fish will cook in the sauce and only takes about five minutes and added right before serving. You can toss the pasta right into the pot or serve it with the sauce on the side.
