Low Carb Mediterranean Fish Soup

This Keto-friendly fish recipe is loaded with tender cod, and Mediterranean inspired flavors. The cod is diced and simmered in a delicious broth of tomato, aromatics, juicy kalamata olives, fresh basil, and a hint of lemon. This makes a great low carb lunch or light dinner option; perfect served all year round!

Can I Use A Different Fish?

We have used diced cod pieces for our Keto fish recipe. This recipe would also work just as well with another meaty white fish or even diced fresh salmon. Simply prepare as directed, adjusting cooking times as needed to ensure the chosen fish is cooked through completely. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the original recipe.

Serving Suggestions

This warming Keto fish soup makes a great lunch option on its own. If you would like to have additional sides, we recommend a low carb bread for mopping up the soup, or alternatively, you could serve with cauliflower rice for a more hearty dinner option. You will find an array of delicious Keto bread recipes and ideas for cauliflower rice in our sides section.

    Nice recipe however I added 1 tsp of Italian spices. 1 tsp of sweet paprika salt and pepper. I used Coral Trout for the fish. Being a master chef ( my own opinion) of bouillabaisse this was half the time spent and ingredients but gave us a great meal. Loved it
