Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Slice the tops off the bread rolls and hollow out the insides. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes until golden and crispy.
  2. In a large pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
  3. Sprinkle in the all-purpose flour, stirring to form a roux, and cook for 1 minute until slightly browned.
  4. Gradually whisk in the seafood stock, heavy cream, and white wine. Bring to a gentle simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Stir in Old Bay seasoning, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Gently fold in shrimp, crab meat, and scallops. Cook for 4-5 minutes until seafood is tender and opaque.
  7. Stir in fresh chopped parsley. Carefully ladle soup into baked bread bowls, garnish with parsley, and serve immediately.
