Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Prep the onion; start the cioppino

  • Peel and coarsely chop enough onion to measure 1 cup [2 cups].

In a medium [large] sauce pot over medium-high heat, warm 2 to 3 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the onion and bay leaf, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion starts to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the San Francisco Bay seasoning and tomato paste and cook until fragrant and the tomato paste starts to caramelize, about 1 minute. 

Add the tomatoes, vegetable broth, ½ cup [1 cup] white wine (from your pantry), if using, and ¾ cup [1½ cups] water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes are softened, 3 to 4 minutes. While the cioppino is cooking, prepare the seafood.

2

Prep and cook the seafood; finish the cioppino

For shrimp and jumbo shrimp: 

  • Rinse and drain the shrimp. Pat dry on a paper-towel-lined plate. Season lightly with salt and pepper. 

 

For halibut: 

  • Pat the fish dry with a paper towel; cut into 1-inch pieces. Season lightly with salt and pepper. 

 

To the pot with the tomato broth, add the seafood and cook, stirring occasionally, until firm and cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes for shrimp, 2 to 4 minutes for halibut. Working in batches if needed, stir in the spinach and cook until just wilted, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat, discard the bay leaf, and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serve

Transfer the cioppino to individual bowls and serve.
