Seafood Stew
Image by Neven Mrgan
1 12-oz can diced tomatoes
1/4 cup celery, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 tsp anchovy paste or 1 tsp mashed anchovies
1 tbsp olive oil
1 cup red wine
1 cup vegetarian, beef or seafood stock
1 tsp cornstarch
1 tbsp chipotle hot sauce (Tabasco brand)
1 tbsp lime juice
1 tsp paprika
1 pinch saffron
1/4 lb mixed seafood, cleaned, cut to bite size (shrimp, mussels, octopus, fish. This is sometimes available in frozen mix packages.)
1 can smoked baby clams, drained
To taste: Crushed red pepper, cayenne pepper, seven-pepper blend, garlic salt
2 whole bay leaves, fresh parsley, basil, and marjoram
Heat the olive oil in a pot and sauté celery and onion in it for about 4 minutes or until soft. Add the garlic and sauté for another minute, then add the tomatoes (drained, reserving the water) and the anchovies. After 5 minutes add the tomato water and the wine. Add the bay leaves. Simmer for 15 minutes or until it’s reduced to soup consistency, then add the stock and reduce again.
Place saffron on a small piece of baking paper and toast it in the oven for about 2 minutes. (If it turns black and bitter, discard.) Powder with your fingers into the stew, then add the hot sauce, the lime juice, and all the seasonings and spices. I go heavy on the hot sauce myself.
Thaw the fresh or frozen seafood in the fridge or under a running (cold) tap. Remove the bay leaves from the stew with a spoon. Add the seafood to the stew, stir once, and cook for 5-7 minutes or until the seafood is done. Dissolve the cornstarch in 1 tsp warm water, then stir into the stew.
Serve with garlic rolls.
