Waterzooi is a Belgian dish of stew originating in Flanders. Its name derives from the Dutch term zooien meaning to boil. It is sometimes called Gentse Waterzooi which refers to the Belgian town of Ghent where it originated. The original dish is often made of fish either freshwater or sea (known as Viszooitje) though today chicken waterzooi (Kippenwaterzooi) is more common. The most accepted theory is that rivers around Ghent became too polluted and the fish there disappeared.
