Preparation

  1. Heat the oil in a saucepan large enough to hold the fillets of fish in one layer. Add the onion, leeks and garlic. Cook and stir over medium heat until wilted. Do not brown. Add the tomatoes, saffron, fish broth, wine, bay leaf, fennel, thyme, Tabasco, salt and pepper. Cook over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the fish fillets in one layer. Add the scallops around the fillets and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for 5 minutes or until done. Do not overcook. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
