Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. In a large sauté pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, white parts of the green onions, thyme, and bay leaves. Sauté for 5 minutes, then add the fish stock, increase the heat, and bring to a boil.
  2. Add the potatoes, pumpkin, chayote, Scotch bonnet pepper, and a pinch of salt. When the potatoes are tender, begin layering the fish: first the scallops, then the bass, then the scallops, mussels, and shrimp. Season with salt and pepper. Cook the fish until it's firm and begins to fall apart, about 10-15 minutes. Sprinkle with green onions and cilantro and serve.
