Instructions
 

Heat Olive Oil

Sauté Vegetables

Simmer the Broth

  • Bring to a gentle simmer. Let it cook for 15–20 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

Add Seafood

  • Add clams, mussels, shrimp and fish chunks. Cover and cook 5–8 minutes until seafood is cooked and shells open.

Make Sourdough Croutons

  • Cut sourdough slices into cubes. Melt butter in a skillet and toast cubes until golden and crisp.

Serve the Cioppino

  • Ladle hot cioppino into bowls. Top with sourdough croutons and sprinkle fresh parsley for garnish.

Notes

  • Add a splash of lemon juice for extra brightness
  • Swap sourdough with ciabatta if preferred
  • Serve with a side of garlic butter bread for extra indulgence
  • Add a pinch of smoked paprika for smoky depth
  • Reduce red pepper flakes for milder taste
