Instructions
  1. Prepare the ingredients while the shellfish soak for 30 minutes in a bowl of cold saltwater.
  2. Heat the oil in a soup pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and crushed red pepper, sautéing 30 seconds to infuse the oil. Add the mushrooms and continue to sauté for 3 minutes.
  3. Add the red peppers, celery, potatoes, and jalapeños, sautéing for 3 minutes. Add in the diced tomatoes, bay leaf, salt, and pepper, sautéing for an additional 5 minutes.
  4. Add the wine and sauté for 2 minutes before adding the broth. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes.
  5. Add the clams and mussels into the soup. Cover, increase the heat to medium-low, cooking 5 to 7 minutes or until the clams and mussel shells have opened. Remove and discard the clams and mussels that did not open.
  6. Add the salmon or fish and cook 3 minutes before adding the scallops and shrimp and cooking an additional 2 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat, discard the bay leaves before serving. Serve with garlic toast.
Recipe Notes

It is essential to clean your shellfish well to prevent sand from cooking into the soup. Just rinse the clams and mussels, soaking them in a bowl of cold salted water for 30 minutes or more. Mussels sometimes have small fibrous “beards,” that should be cut off. Scrub any remaining sediment from the shells before adding to the soup.
