  • 1 ear fresh corn, kernels cut from cob
  • 1 stalk celery, halved and diced
  • 6 cups chicken stock (such as Swanson®)
  • 1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers
  • 1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers, lime, and cilantro (such as RO*TEL®)
  • 1 ancho chile pepper, diced
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder

  • ¾ pound fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped, or to taste

Directions

Step 1
Heat olive oil in a stockpot over medium heat. Add onion and cook until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 2
Add carrots, corn, and celery and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add chicken stock, tomatoes, ancho chili, chili powder, and cumin and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 45 minutes.

Step 3
Meanwhile, place clams and mussels in a bowl of cold water to filter out sand.

Step 4
Drain clams and mussels; add to the soup. Stir in cod and shrimp. Cover and boil until cod is white and flaky, mussels and clams are open, and shrimp is pink, 5 to 10 minutes. Serve immediately, topped with cilantro and avocado.

Cook’s Notes:

If desired, save shrimp tails and shells, wrap up in cheesecloth, and add to the simmering soup. Remove from soup before adding seafood.
