Sauté the Aromatics

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic, onion, bell pepper, and celery. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.

Season the Broth

Add the white wine, Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir well to combine.

Cook the Seafood

Add the shrimp, fish, and oysters to the pot. Cook for 5-10 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through and opaque. Stir occasionally.

Finish with Lemon

Squeeze the juice of one large lemon over the seafood and give it a gentle stir before serving.
