Ingredients

1/2 lb large shrimp, shells removed and reserved
2 cups water
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 carrots, chopped
2 onions, chopped
1 fennel bulb, chopped
2 celery ribs, chopped
6 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup dry white wine
3 1/2 cups bottled clam juice
2 1/2 cups canned crushed tomatoes in puree (from a 28-ounce can)
1/4 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
5 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon salt, depending on the saltiness of the clam juice (or more)
2 bay leaves
2 lbs moderately firm white fish fillets, such as cod, halibut, ocean perch, orange roughy, pollack, red snapper (use a mixture of 2 or 3 kinds) or 2 lbs tilapia fillets, cut into 1-by-1-inch pieces
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

Put the shrimp shells and the water in a small pot; bring the water to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 15 minutes. Strain the shrimp stock into a bowl. Discard the shells.
In a large pot, heat the oil over moderate heat. Add the carrots, onions, fennel, celery, and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables start to soften, about 5 minutes.
Add the wine; cook until it almost evaporates, about 5 minutes. Stir in the shrimp stock, clam juice, tomatoes, red-pepper flakes, 4 tablespoons of the parsley, the thyme, salt, and bay leaves.
Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, for 25 minutes. Taste for salt and, if needed, add more.
Remove the bay leaves.
Add the fish, shrimp, the remaining tablespoon parsley, and the pepper to the pot and bring to a simmer.
Simmer until the fish and shrimp are just done, about 2 minutes.

The soup was a bit too thick for my taste. I would recommend adding more liquid next time.

The soup was bland and lacked flavor. I would recommend adding more herbs and spices next time.

The soup was good, but it was a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt next time.

This soup was a bit too fishy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less fish and more vegetables.
