2 teaspoons pepper
1/2 teaspoon Nature's Seasoning

Use a large pot: Saute onion and celery in butter until tender. Add 2 cups chicken stock, potatoes, parsley, pepper, salt, seafood seasoning and Nature's Seasoning. Cook over medium heat uncovered for 12 minutes, to let liquid evaporate. Sprinkle flour over the potatoes and stir. Add scallops and crab meat, evaporated milk and regular milk or chicken broth.
