Sheila's Company Seafood Bake. image

What a super recipe this is! It looks difficult, but it is just a tad time consuming. Once you've served it, you will forget how long it took you to prepare. I think it comes from an old weekend paper in Montreal.....probably a Margo Oliver recipe. I have divided it into 3 parts to make it look less intimidating. Edited note: I just made this again yesterday after not doing so for a long time, and feel that 1 cup rice and 2 cups chicken stock would work much better. (The original called for 1 1/2 cups rice and 3 cups chicken stock.)
