Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Base

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic, chopped onion, and bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Tomatoes and Spices

    Stir in the diced tomatoes, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes until the tomatoes start to break down.

  3. 3

    Incorporate the Broth

    Pour in the fish stock or seafood broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Seafood

    Add the mixed seafood to the pot and cook for an additional 7-10 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through and opaque.

  5. 5

    Finish with Fresh Ingredients

    Stir in the chopped cilantro and lime juice. Cook for another 2 minutes to combine the flavors.

  6. 6

    Serve
