Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Seafood

    Rinse and pat dry the cod fillets, shrimp, scallops, calamari, and mussels. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Crostini

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and toast in the oven for 5-7 minutes until golden. After toasting, rub each slice with the cut side of the garlic clove.

Cooking the Broth

  1. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and red bell pepper, sautéing for about 5 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  2. 4

    Add the Tomatoes and Liquids

    Add the crushed tomatoes, fish stock (or clam juice), and white wine to the pot. Stir well to combine.

  3. 5

    Season the Broth

    Add the bay leaves, dried oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes.

Add the Seafood

  1. 6

    Cook the Seafood

    Add the cod, shrimp, scallops, calamari, and mussels into the simmering broth. Cover and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mussels open and the seafood is cooked through.

  2. 7

    Final Touches

    Remove the bay leaves and adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper if needed. Stir in the chopped parsley just before serving.

Serving
