Steps:
- Heat a large soup pot with extra-virgin olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the kielbasa and brown for 2 minutes; add the potatoes, onions, celery, bay, thyme, and pepper and let the veggies soften up 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Next add the garlic and the corn and stir to combine.
- Add the tomatoes and stock to the pot. Cover and bring to a boil. Cook for 8 minutes.
- Pat shrimp dry and toss with a rounded tablespoon of seafood seasoning. Add the shrimp and clams and replace the cover.
- Cook until shrimp are pink and firm and the clams have opened up, 7 minutes. (During the cooking time I tend to leave the temperature on medium high so that the soup continues at a rapid boil.).

Steps:
- Pour butter in a 9"x13" pan.

- sauce, paprika and salt.
- Spread over top of salmon.
- Sprinkle with oregano and parsley.
- Bake at 350 degrees for app.
- 35 minute depending on thickness of salmon.
CLAM, SHRIMP, & SCALLOP PAN ROAST
Steps:
- Give the clams a good scrubbing, discarding any with cracked or open shells. Set aside. Heat the oil over medium-high in a pan that you can cover later. Throw in the garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Pour in the clam juice, wine, and Mutha Sauce. When the mixture is bubbling, add the clams. Cover and cook til the clams open, 3 to 5 minutes. Pull out the clams as they open, and keep them warm. (Pitch any clams that don't open.)
- Boil and reduce the pan juices over high heat for about 8 minutes. Sprinkle in the red pepper and season up the sauce with Worcestershire.
- Toss in the shrimp and scallops. Simmer til they're cooked and have just turned opaque, about 4 minutes. Swirl in the cream and basil. Return the clams to the pan, and gently stir together all the shellfish. Sprinkle with parsley and serve steaming hot.
Tips:
- To ensure a light and crispy batter, make sure the batter is cold when you dip the seafood or vegetables into it.
- Do not overmix the batter, as this will result in a tough batter.
- Use a generous amount of batter on each item to ensure even cooking.
- Fry the seafood or vegetables in hot oil to create a crispy outer layer.
- Do not overcrowd the pan when frying, as this will cause the temperature of the oil to drop and result in soggy batter.
- Drain the fried items on paper towels to remove excess oil.
