- In a small Dutch oven or deep pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Sauté the onion and garlic until they are translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the clam juice.
- When the liquid comes to a boil, add the potatoes and tomatoes. Reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for 15 minutes or until the potatoes are almost done.
- Add the cod, scallops or other fish, tarragon, and parsley. Simmer until the fish is opaque in the center and flakes easily, about 4 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
