Seafood

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Garlic and Bell Pepper

    Stir in the minced garlic and diced red bell pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the peppers soften.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Broth

    Add the crushed tomatoes, fish stock (or clam juice), white wine, oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.

  4. 4

    Simmer the Broth

    Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Cooking the Seafood

  1. 5

    Add the Seafood

    Carefully add the shrimp, scallops, clams, mussels, fish, and lobster tails into the simmering broth.

  2. 6

    Cook Until Done

    Cover the pot and let the seafood cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the clams and mussels open and the shrimp is pink and opaque.

  3. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from heat, garnish with fresh chopped parsley, and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
