Directions
Heat the oil in a large soup pot.
Sauté the onion and garlic until the onions are transluscent.
Add all of the other ingredients except the shrimp, clams and the fish.
Simmer for 1 hour or until the vegetables are tender.
Add the seafood and cook for 7 to 10 minutes at a low boil.
NOTE: I have added on occassion ¼ cup rice to this recipe and it is good that way too.
Serves 8 to 10.
