For an intensified seafood experience, consider incorporating lobster or crab into the stew. Experiment with different types of white wine to find your preferred flavor profile; a crisp Sauvignon Blanc or a dry Pinot Grigio would complement the dish well. Ensure all clams and mussels are tightly closed before cooking. Discard any that remain open. Serve with a drizzle of high-quality olive oil and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt for an extra touch of elegance. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes based on your desired level of spice. Feel free to add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a more intense heat.

Follow The Directions
01
StepCraft the Broth: In a measuring cup or bowl, marry the crushed tomatoes, red pepper flakes, and water. Employ an immersion blender to achieve a velvety, smooth base. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
02
StepPrepare the Seafood: Cut the sea bass into generous 1 1/2-inch pieces, ensuring harmony in size with the other seafood. Arrange the sea bass, shrimp, calamari, mussels, and clams in individual vessels, poised for their moment in the spotlight. (Prep time: 10 minutes)
03
StepBuild the Foundation: In a deep pan set over medium-high heat, melt the butter alongside the olive oil. Introduce the thinly sliced fennel and garlic, seasoned with salt, and sauté until the garlic develops a delicate hue, approximately 1 minute. Infuse the pan with white wine, allowing it to simmer until reduced by half, about 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the tomato broth, coaxing it to a boil, and allow the fennel to soften, roughly 2 to 3 minutes. Sample and refine the seasonings to your liking. (Cook time: 8 minutes)
04
StepUnleash the Sea: Incorporate the freshly chopped parsley, sea bass, shrimp, and calamari into the aromatic broth. Gently nestle the clams and mussels amongst the simmering ingredients. Cover the pan, amplify the heat to high, and cook until the clam and mussel shells gracefully open and the sea bass, shrimp, and calamari achieve an opaque allure, approximately 5 minutes. (Cook time: 5 minutes)
05
StepPresent the Masterpiece: Ladle the stew into warmed serving bowls, artfully garnished with the reserved fennel fronds. Serve immediately, accompanied by crusty bread to capture every delectable drop.
