   Add the lobster, clams, mussels, shrimp, calamari, and seasonal fish to the pot. Stir gently to combine.

4. 4

   Simmer

   Cover the pot and let the cioppino simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through and the clams and mussels have opened.

5. 5

   Season and Serve

   Stir in the chopped parsley and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve hot with grilled bread on the side.
