Seafood Veracruz Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients and chop the onion, mince the garlic, and slice the olives if not pre-sliced.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the Tomatoes and Spices

    Stir in the diced tomatoes, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes to let the flavors meld.

  4. 4

    Cook the Seafood

    Add the shrimp, scallops, and fish fillets to the skillet. Gently stir to coat them with the sauce. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through and opaque.

  5. 5

    Finish the Dish

    Stir in the sliced green olives and capers. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot. Enjoy your Seafood Veracruz!
