Sophia’s Puerto Rican Style Seafood Stew (Asopado de Mariscos)

Description

Savory and hearty. Perfect for seafood lovers. You don’t necessarily have to use the seafood I chose to use. I recommend using seafood that is fresh to your area. I prefer to use homemade stock, but, store bought works just as well. Contact me if you have any questions or would like something further explained. Feliz Provecho!
