Notes

For a lighter version, you can use half-and-half instead of heavy cream. If you don’t have seafood stock, chicken or vegetable broth works as a substitute. Avoid overcooking the seafood to keep its tender texture; they cook quickly! Store any leftovers in an airtight container, best consumed within three days, and reheat gently.
