Method

1

Prepare the seafood: Scrub the clams and mussels, discarding any that are open and don't close when tapped. Cut the fish into 2-inch pieces.

2

Sauté aromatics: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and red pepper flakes and cook for 1 minute more, until fragrant.

3

Build the broth: Pour in the crushed tomatoes and white wine. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, allowing the alcohol to evaporate.

4

Add broth and simmer: Pour in the fish broth or stock. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

5

Add seafood: Add the clams and mussels to the pot. Cover and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the clams and mussels have opened. Discard any that don't open.

6

Add fish: Gently add the fish pieces to the stew. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

7

Garnish and serve: Stir in the fresh parsley. Ladle the Zuppa di Pesce into bowls and serve immediately with crusty bread for dipping.
