    i want to make this sometime....its a rachel ray recipe.....

    1/4 cup (3 turns around the pan in a slow stream) extra-virgin olive oil
    1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
    2 to 3 flat fillets of anchovies, drained
    6 cloves garlic, crushed
    1 bay leaf, fresh or dried
    2 celery ribs, chopped
    1 medium onion, chopped
    1 cup good quality dry white wine
    1 (14-ounce) container chicken stock
    1 (32-ounce) can chunky style crushed tomatoes
    4 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves removed (about 1 tablespoon)
    1 handful flat-leaf parsley, chopped
    1 1/2 pounds cod, cut into 2-inch chunks
    Salt and pepper
    8 large shrimp, ask for deveined easy-peel or peel and devein
    8 sea scallops
    16 to 20 raw mussels, scrubbed
    A loaf of fresh, crusty bread, for mopping


    In a large pot over moderate heat combine oil, crushed pepper, anchovies, garlic, and bay. Let anchovies melt into oil. The anchovies act as a natural salt, the pepper flakes will infuse the oil, providing heat. Chop celery and onion near stove and add to the pot as you work. Saute vegetables for a few minutes to begin to soften and add wine to the pot. Reduce wine a minute, then add chicken stock, tomatoes, thyme, and parsley. Bring sauce to a bubble and reduce heat to medium low. Season fish chunks with salt and pepper. Add fish and simmer 5 minutes, giving the pot a shake now and then. Do not stir your soup with a spoon after the addition of fish or you will break it up. Add shrimp, scallops, and mussels and cover pot. Cook 10 minutes, giving the pot a good shake now and again. Remove the lid and discard any mussels that do not open. Carefully ladle stew into shallow bowls and pass bread at the table.
