Method
Step 1
Melt butter with olive oil in a large soup pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
Step 2
Add diced onion, fennel, leek, salt, pepper, herbs, and spices and stir to combine. Sauté until veggies begin to soften and become aromatic, about 5 minutes, then add garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
Step 3
Add tomato paste, Tomato Love tomatoes, wine, seafood stock, and bay leaf and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and allow broth to gently simmer, uncovered, for 45 minutes.
Step 4
Remove bay leaf. Taste and season with more salt and pepper, if necessary.
Step 5
Add seafood to the pot starting with halibut, then clams, then shrimp, followed by mussels. Gently stir to combine.
Step 6
Cover and cook until clams and mussels open up, about for 10 minutes.
Step 7
Lastly, check to see if any clams or mussels remained closed, and if so, remove and discard as they are not good to eat.
Step 8
Serve in shallow bowls and garnish with parsley and lemon wedges. Serve with toasted bread if desired. Enjoy!
