-
In a large pot, combine the thinly sliced onion and finely chopped garlic. Cook covered over low heat until soft, stirring frequently to prevent scorching.
-
Add the finely chopped parsley, diced bell pepper, tomato sauce, dry white wine, water, crushed thyme, crushed rosemary, salt, black pepper, and bay leaf to the pot.
-
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then cover and let it cook for 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
-
Add the crab or cubed firm white fish, shrimp, and scallops or clams to the simmering broth.
-
Cover and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the scallops are opaque, the fish is cooked through, and the clam shells have opened.
-
Discard any clam shells that do not open. Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions.
