Preparation

Step 1

Pour some olive oil in a large pot. Add the chorizo and cook for about 2-3 minutes over medium heat. Add the potatoes, onion and garlic and cook until the onions begin to soften, about 5-6 minutes.

Stir in the tomatoes and cook for about 2 minutes. Stir in the parsley, thyme, oregano, chili flakes, bay leaf, salt and pepper. Add the stock, and bring to a boil. Lower heat, cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Add scallops, shrimp, fish and squid. Bring to a boil then lower the heat, cover, and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes, until the seafood is cooked through.

Ladle the seafood stew into bowls. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve with crusty bread.
