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

2

Add Garlic and Tomato Paste

Stir in the minced garlic and tomato paste. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring frequently.

3

Combine Tomatoes and Stock

Add the canned diced tomatoes (with their juices) and the fish stock to the pot. Stir to combine.

4

Season the Broth

Add the bay leaves, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 15 minutes.

5

Add Fish and Shrimp

Gently add the fish chunks and shrimp to the pot. Simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the shrimp are pink and opaque.
