Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
- Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and diced red bell pepper to the pot. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, this should take about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the diced tomatoes, white wine, fish stock, bay leaf, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 20 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld together and intensify.
- Add the cleaned mussels, peeled shrimp, and bite-sized white fish fillets to the pot. Cover and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through and the mussels have opened.
- Carefully remove the bay leaf from the pot and discard.
- Before serving, garnish the Cazuela de Mariscos with chopped cilantro and lemon slices for a burst of freshness.
- Serve hot. This rich stew pairs beautifully with crusty bread or a serving of rice.
Tips
- For a spicier kick, you can add a diced jalapeno or a dash of chili flakes to the stew. You can also experiment with other types of seafood like squid or clams.
