This Seafood Leek Soup is a tasty alternative to cioppino. Here we’ve made it with chicken stock instead of using a tomato base. If you happen to have fish stock, it would be even better! We’ve loaded it up with calamari, clams, shrimp, and mussels. Using clams and mussels in the shell would be very pretty. You can add any combination of seafood including scallops, lobster, and even crab—whatever you happen have on hand. Since this soup is loaded with all kinds of fish and shellfish, it’s nutrient-dense and has a huge list of health benefits to review.
