Delicious. Great detailed and easy to follow directions. I added a fennel bulb, 1lb of scallops, doubled the clams and added about 1.5 cup of fish broth because I did not have enough liquid to cover all the seafood added. Garnished with fresh lemon slices and hot sauce. It was a large pot of yumminess. We had it for Christmas Eve dinner and it was loved by all. Next time I will add some red bell peppers. Thank you for a great recipe.

Amazing! I ate ciopinno the last time I was in Seattle and I have been looking for a recipe to match it. This is pretty close. I added scallops, crab and more garlic! I also left the mussels, crab and clams in their shells because when I had it in Seattle, all the seafood was left in its shell and it was a nice presentation.

I started cooking because I am such a picky eater. My mom is from the south and my dad is from Spain so I had some really good food genes. I went from not being able to fry an egg to creating my own recipes which (based on feedback I get) I do a really good job.
