Season the fish chunks with salt, pepper, and the juice of 1 lime. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes.

In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced onions, minced garlic, thyme sprigs, whole cloves, and minced scotch bonnet pepper (if using). Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onions are softened and fragrant.

Add the cubed potatoes and water (or broth) to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are almost tender.

Add the marinated fish to the pot. Ensure the fish is mostly submerged in the liquid. Add the remaining lime juice. Bring back to a gentle simmer, cover, and cook for another 10-15 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.

Remove the thyme sprigs and whole cloves if desired. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve hot, traditionally with grits or johnnycake.
