Instructions
Wash produce before use
1
Prep the vegetables
- Peel and coarsely chop the onion.
- Scrub the potatoes and cut into quarters.
- Remove the stem, ribs, and seeds from the bell pepper. Coarsely chop the pepper.
- Cut the celery into ¼-inch-thick slices.
2
Start the soup
In a large sauce pot over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the onion and potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the bell pepper and celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, 2 to 3 minutes.
Add the bay leaf, Spanish soup base, and 1 cup [2 cups] water and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender, 15 to 18 minutes. When the soup is almost done, prepare the seafood.

Prep and cook the seafood
For shrimp and jumbo shrimp:
- Rinse and drain the shrimp. Pat dry on a paper-towel-lined plate. Season lightly with salt and pepper and the paprika.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the shrimp and cook, turning once, until firm and cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes per side for regular shrimp, 2 to 3 minutes per side for jumbo shrimp. Transfer to a plate.
For scallops:
- Rinse and drain the scallops. Pat dry on a paper-towel-lined plate. Season lightly with salt and pepper, and the paprika.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the scallops and cook without turning until golden brown on one side and starting to turn opaque, 2 to 4 minutes. Turn and continue cooking for about 30 seconds for translucent or 1 to 2 minutes for opaque. Transfer to a plate.
For halibut:
- Pat the fish dry with a paper towel; season lightly with salt and pepper and the paprika.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the fish and cook until lightly browned on the bottom side, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook until the flesh is opaque and flaky, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
