2 (14.5 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
¾ cup white wine
½ cup water
1 tablespoon dried basil
½ teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 bay leaves
1 ¼ pounds cod fillets, cut into chunks
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 pound bay scallops

Melt butter in a large braising pan over medium heat. Cook onions and garlic in melted butter, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon, until onions are softened, 5 to 7 minutes.
Stir chicken broth, diced tomatoes, wine, water, basil, thyme, oregano, red pepper flakes, and bay leaves with the onion and garlic. Place a cover on the braising pan and cook mixture at a simmer until the tomatoes are softened and the broth flavorful, about 30 minutes.
