Seafood Soup Ingredients

Method

Seafood Soup Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Base

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and diced onion, and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Vegetables

    Stir in the chopped celery, diced carrots, and diced potatoes. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. 3

    Add Broth

    Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

  4. 4

    Add Seafood

    Add the shrimp, clams, scallops, mussels, diced tilapia, and crab legs to the pot. Season with salt and black pepper. Stir gently to combine.

  5. 5

    Simmer the Soup

    Let the soup simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through and the mussels and clams have opened.

  6. 6

    Final Touches

    Remove the pot from heat. Stir in the lemon juice and chopped parsley for freshness.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Ladle the seafood soup into bowls and serve hot, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
