Cooking

  4. 6

    Add the stock

    Pour the fish stock over the seafood, then sprinkle the chopped parsley evenly over everything.

  5. 7

    Simmer

    Cover the skillet and let it simmer for about 10-12 minutes, or until the clams have opened and the shrimp are cooked through.

  6. 8

    Serve

    Once cooked, remove from heat and serve the Merluza a la vasca hot, garnished with extra parsley if desired.
