Ingredients
* 3/4 cup olive oil * 2 onions * 2 cloves garlic * 1 bunch fresh parsley, chopped * 2 (14.5 ounce) cans stewed tomatoes * 32 oz of seafood broth (chicken if can't find) * 2 bay leaves * 1 tablespoon dried basil * 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme * 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano * 1 cup water * 1 1/2 cups white wine * 7 lbs frozen seafood mix. I used a type that had mussels, shrimp, and calamari. Only cost about $3/ lbs at Safeway (in 2011). It makes a lot of soup! * can also substitute in any other fish/seafood for part of the seafood mix. just make sure cook thoroughly if do so.
Directions
1. Let frozen seafood defrost overnight. If do not have time, defrost in microwave until almost room termperature.
2. Mince garlic and chop onion into small pieces. Heat olive oil in a large stockpot (48oz +), add onions, garlic and parsley. Cook slowly, stirring occasionally until onions are soft.
3. Add tomatoes to the pot (break them into chunks as you add them). Add broth, bay leaves, basil, thyme, oregano, water and wine. Mix well. Cover and simmer 30 minutes.
4. Stir in seafood. Bring to boil. Lower heat, cover and simmer 5 to 7 minutes until clams open. Ladle soup into bowls and serve with warm, crusty bread!

    The tip about the Safeway bag of mixed seafood was wonderful and helps avoid waste. I subbed some Cabernet for the white wine, but followed the recipe otherwise. Good, healthy taste, very filling! - 1/2/12
