Easy Seafood Stew
The name says it all! This is a quick and Easy Seafood Stew you can make on a weeknight. And it’s the perfect soup for dipping crusty bread into.
Seafood Mix
The original recipe for this stew called for calamari, but I was having a hard time finding it. I did find calamari steak but it didn’t give the stew any texture, I also tried bay scallops which actually worked pretty well. But, I felt like it was still missing some substance.
So when I stumbled upon a seafood mix, which was a blend of mussels, shrimp, octopus and squid I had to try it! It was the perfect texture and blend of seafood in every bite.
How To Roast Bell Pepper
Adjust and oven rack about 5 inches away from the broiler. Heat the broiler on high. Cut the bell pepper in half lengthwise and remove seeds and stem. Place cut side down on a rimmed baking sheet and broil until the skin blisters, about 6 minutes.
Remove from the broiler and lightly cover with foil to steam for about 10 minutes and peel skin.
This recipe uses freshly roasted bell pepper, but as a substitute you can use jarred roasted bell peppers in a pinch.
Online casino players love seafood, and it’s not hard to see why. From succulent crab legs to juicy shrimp, seafood is a culinary delight that appeals to many. But what is it about seafood that makes it such a hit with casino players Seafood is widely available in many of the world’s top casino destinations. Whether it’s the luxurious casinos of Las Vegas or the vibrant gaming scene of Macau, seafood is a staple on many menus. And with online casinos now offering a vast selection of games and promotions to players around the world, it’s no surprise that seafood has become a popular choice for those enjoying a night of gaming from the comfort of their own homes.

Make Ahead
Not only is this easy to make, but another advantage about this stew is you can freeze it! Just add the seafood mix right before serving because the seafood mix only takes a few minutes to cook and if the seafood gets over cooked it becomes rubbery.
Variations
Using the seafood mix is my favorite, but you can also use calamari, mussels, shrimp and clams in place of the frozen seafood mix. You can also use canned seafood as well, a mix of clams, oysters and shrimp would be a great substitute if you can’t find frozen seafood mix.
