Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium, diced yellow onion
• 4 minced garlic cloves
• 2 diced celery stalks
• 1 peeled and diced carrot
• 28 ounces crushed tomatoes
• 4 cups seafood or chicken broth
• 1 cup dry white wine
• 1 whole bay leaf
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley
• 12 ounces, peeled and deveined shrimp
• 8 ounces scallops
• 1 pound, cleaned mussels or clams
• 12 ounces dry pasta (spaghetti, fettuccine, or linguine)
• 1 cup (for adjusting broth consistency, if needed) water

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the diced onion, garlic, celery, and carrot to the pot. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and fragrant.

Step 3

Pour in the crushed tomatoes, seafood (or chicken) broth, and white wine. Stir to combine.

Step 4

Add the bay leaf, dried thyme, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for 20 minutes.

Step 5

While the stew is simmering, cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 6

After the stew has simmered, taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Add the shrimp, scallops, and mussels or clams to the pot.

Step 7

Cover the pot and cook for 6-8 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through and the mussels or clams have opened. Discard any mussels or clams that do not open.

Step 8

If the stew is too thick, add up to 1 cup of water to adjust the consistency to your preference.

Step 9

Stir in the chopped parsley just before serving.

Step 10

To serve, place a portion of cooked pasta in a bowl and ladle the seafood stew over the top. Garnish with additional chopped parsley, if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
