Pour the broth over the vegetables. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium. Cover and simmer for 12 minutes. Place the fish on top of the vegetables in a single layer. Drizzle with the lemon juice and olive oil.

Cover and simmer for 12 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking for 12 minutes more, or until the potatoes are tender and the fish flakes easily.
