- 1In a large saucepan, cook the bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove from the pan and place in a small bowl, leaving the grease. Deglaze the pan with wine and cook until reduced, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the butter, onion, and celery and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the potatoes, stock, and bay leaves and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer until the potatoes are almost tender, about 15 minutes.
- 2Add the mussels, cover, and cook another 5 minutes until they open. Add the cream, haddock, and scallops. Cover and bring back to a gentle simmer for 5 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Add the lobster and reserved bacon and simmer until heated through. Season to taste with salt and pepper and garnish with chives. Serve immediately with a fresh baguette.
