Waterzooi is a stew dish from Belgium and originating in Flanders. The second part of the name derives from the Middle Dutch terms sode, zo(o)de and soot, words referring to the act of boiling or the ingredients being boiled.

The original dish is often made of fish, either freshwater or sea,, though today chicken waterzooi (Kippenwaterzooi) is more common.
