Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 bell pepper, diced (any color)
- 1 carrot, sliced
- 1 celery stalk, diced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
- 4 cups seafood stock or fish broth
- 1 pound firm white fish (like cod or haddock), cut into chunks
- 1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1/2 pound mussels, cleaned
- 1/2 pound clams, cleaned
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in the bell pepper, carrot, and celery. Cook for another 5 minutes until the vegetables soften.
- Add the dried thyme, smoked paprika, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir well to combine and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Pour in the diced tomatoes and seafood stock. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes.
- Gently add the chunks of white fish to the pot, followed by the shrimp, mussels, and clams. Cover the pot and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through and the mussels and clams have opened.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and let it sit for a couple of minutes.
- Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley and lemon wedges on the side.
Notes
- For a heartier stew, add diced potatoes or corn during the vegetable sauté step.
- Substitute any seafood you prefer or have on hand, such as scallops or squid, to customize the stew to your taste.
