Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
Add the diced onion, garlic, carrot, and celery. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are softened.
Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for 2 minutes to reduce slightly.
Stir in the diced tomatoes, fish or seafood stock, red pepper flakes, bay leaf, paprika, and thyme.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 20 minutes to develop flavor.
Add the clams to the pot, cover with a lid, and cook for 5 minutes until they begin to open.
Add the mussels, shrimp, scallops, and white fish to the pot. Stir gently and cover. Cook for an additional 7-10 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through and the mussels and clams are fully opened. Discard any that remain closed.
Season the stew with salt and black pepper to taste.
Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
Serve hot with crusty bread for dipping and enjoy!
