Seafood and Broth

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Broth

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Cook the Seafood

    Add the shrimp, scallops, mussels, clams, and cod fish to the pot. Cover and cook for about 8-10 minutes until the seafood is cooked through and the shells have opened.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Saffron Aioli

    In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 tsp lemon juice, and 1/4 tsp saffron. Whisk until well combined.

  5. 5

    Grill the Bread

    While the stew is cooking, grill slices of bread until golden brown.
