Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
• 2 celery stalks, chopped
• 2 medium carrots, chopped
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 2 bay leaves
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 4 cups fish stock or seafood broth
• 2 cups water
• 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
• 0.5 pound bay scallops
• 0.5 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 0.5 pound white fish fillets, chopped (such as cod or haddock)
• 0.25 cup fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, celery, and carrots. Sauté until the vegetables are softened and the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 2

Add the minced garlic and tomato paste to the pot. Stir and cook for an additional 2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant.

Step 3

Stir in the bay leaves, dried thyme, fish stock, and water. Bring the mixture to a boil.

Step 4

Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer. Add the diced potatoes and cook until they are fork-tender, about 15 minutes.

Step 5

Add the bay scallops, shrimp, and chopped white fish to the pot. Allow the seafood to cook through, about 5 minutes. The shrimp should turn pink, and the fish should flake easily.

Step 6

Stir in the chopped fresh parsley and lemon juice. Season with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper, if using.

Step 7

Simmer for another 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 8

Remove and discard the bay leaves.

Step 9

Serve the soup hot, garnished with additional fresh parsley if desired.
