Chilly winter evenings call for a satisfying seafood soup, and pasta and seafood are perfect partners. Today, you often can find ready-to-cook fresh or frozen ravioli in the supermarket. If you prefer dried pasta, it works equally well. Serve with crusty garlic bread and a crisp green salad.

Cook the ravioli in boiling salted water according to package directions. Drain well, then put the ravioli back in the pot and toss with 1 teaspoon of the oil to prevent sticking.
In a 10-inch pot, heat the remaining oil over medium heat. Add the green onion and garlic; cook until tender, about 4 minutes, stirring. Stir in the tomato paste until blended; add the crushed tomatoes, broth, basil, cayenne, salt and pepper; cover and bring to a boil.
Add the ravioli, sea bass and vermouth. Cover and simmer until the seafood is opaque, 3 to 4 minutes. Do not overcook; the seafood will continue to cook sitting in the hot liquid.
Using a slotted spoon, divide the sea bass and ravioli evenly among bowls, then ladle the soup liquid over.
This recipe yields 4 servings.
