Directions:
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic, carrots, onions, celery, mushrooms, green onions, thyme, oregano, and seasonings. Sauté for 10-12 minutes. Once the vegetables are cooked down, add in water, seafood stock, white wine, 3 bay leaves, lemon juice, and seasonings. Turn it to high heat and let the flavors fuse by boiling for 20-25 min. Now it is time to add in your seafood of choice. We used fresh scallops, 1 filet of fish, cooked shrimp, and muscles. Let the mixture boil for an additional 10 min. Remove the bay leaves and enjoy over rice with fresh garlic bread!
