Instructions
- 1 Gather the ingredients.
- 2 Heat olive oil in a large saucepan; add onions, leeks, chopped tomatoes, and garlic. Cook and stir over low heat until vegetables have softened, about 3 to 5 minutes.
- 3 Stir in fennel, thyme, bay leaf, and orange zest. Add mussels, shrimp, and boiling water; stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Increase the heat to high, and boil for about 3 minutes to allow the oil and water to combine.
- 4 Add seabass and reduce the heat to medium. Continue cooking until fish is opaque and tender, but still firm, about 12 to 15 minutes. Fish should not be falling apart.
- 5 Taste the bouillabaisse and adjust the seasoning. Stir in saffron, and then pour soup into a warmed tureen or soup dishes. Serve immediately.
