  • 1 TBS olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 4 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 TBS chopped fresh thyme (A thyme tip: Take the fresh little twig of thyme and simply rub your fingers down the stalk in the opposite direction of which the little leaves grow. They will fall off easily and you can chop them from there if you wish but their small enough, I leave them whole).
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 TBS tomato paste
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 1 28 oz can diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 TBS red wine vinegar
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 lb raw shrimp – peeled and deveined
  • 1/2 lb scallops
  • 1/2 lb skinless halibut fillet, cut into 1” chunks *Our store did not have the halibut. The fish monger said it doesn’t sell this time of year because it’s expensive. I bought swordfish instead and cut off the tough end skin. It worked great!

  • Cioppino. I kept wanting to add an “h” in the spelling since it’s pronounced “Cho-pee-no”. After you get the spelling right, you can find out what it is: Italian fish stew. It’s one of my favorites and Ellie’s recipe didn’t disappoint.
