A delicious stuffed seafood soup served in a sourdough bread bowl, perfect for seafood lovers.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large sourdough bread bowls
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup celery, diced
- 1 cup carrots, diced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup diced tomatoes (canned or fresh)
- 4 cups seafood stock
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup cooked shrimp, chopped
- 1 cup cooked crab meat
- 1 cup cooked scallops, chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 lemon, juiced
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Cut the tops off the sourdough bread bowls and scoop out the insides, leaving a thick shell. Reserve the bread for later use.
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the celery, carrots, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
- Stir in the diced tomatoes and seafood stock. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream, shrimp, crab meat, and scallops. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until heated through. Add lemon juice and stir well.
- Carefully ladle the seafood soup into the prepared bread bowls. Place the tops back on the bowls and place them on a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the bread is slightly toasted and the soup is bubbling.
- Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes while sautéing the vegetables.
- Substitute the seafood with your favorite fish or add more vegetables for a vegetarian version.
