Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
Add the diced onion, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and a pinch of salt. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and jalapeño (if using). Cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add the tomato paste and stir well to coat the vegetables. Cook for another 2 minutes.
Pour in the crushed tomatoes and vegetable or seafood stock. Stir thoroughly to combine.
Add the kidney beans, white beans, chili powder, smoked paprika, ground cumin, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Reduce the heat to low and let the chili simmer uncovered for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld.
Increase the heat slightly and gently stir in the shrimp, scallops, and white fish cubes. Let the seafood cook for 5-7 minutes, or until all the seafood is opaque and cooked through.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Remove the pot from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Ladle the seafood chili into bowls, garnish with fresh cilantro, and serve with lime wedges on the side.
