Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 garlic cloves
1 leek
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 pinch salt
1 1/2 tablespoons Old Bay Seasoning
2 cups water
1 1/4 cups low-fat whipping cream
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup white wine
1/2 teaspoon saffron thread, crumbled (or 1 packet powdered saffron)
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 lb mixed seafood (scallops, shrimp, langoustines, calamari)
1 lb salmon fillet, chopped into a 2-inch dice

Steps:

  • Very finely dice the garlic and both the white and the green parts of the leek, then sauté over medium heat in the bottom of a soup pot with a pinch of salt until the leeks begin to soften, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with Old Bay Seafood Seasoning.
  • Stir in the water, the light whipping cream, the sour cream, the white wine, the saffron, the thyme, and the basil. Bring to a low boil, then add the mixed shellfish. Reduce heat to a steady simmer and cook, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
  • Add the salmon and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
  • Serve warm, with homemade rye rolls and a salad.
