MARISCADA EN SALSA VERDE (SEAFOOD STEW IN GREEN SAUCE)
This seafood stew gets it's green sauce from tomatillos and fresh parsley. I've adjusted the traditional cooking method a bit to, hopefully, bring out the flavors of the seafood with less of a "fishy" taste. This is a Spanish version, rather than Mexican or Latin American so it uses fresh parsley. If you prefer, you can substitute fresh cilantro for some or all of the parsley.

Steps:
- Cook tomatillos in boiling water for about 3 minutes (they will change color), cool off in cold water for a couple of minutes, then chop in a food processor.
- Add onions and garlic to food processor and coarsely puree.
- Heat oil in a large saucepan and saute puree until onions are tender, about 5 minutes (I know this is hard to tell, but use your nose; the puree will smell strongly of onions, but once done, the aroma will be lessened).
- Stir in coconut milk, chicken stock, wine, and parsley; season with salt and pepper and hot sauce.
- Cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium high heat; add shrimp and saute until slightly seared, but not necessarily cooked through (will finish in the sauce), about 1 minute per side; set aside.
- Saute scallops until seared, about 2 minutes per side (will also finish in sauce); set aside.
- Wipe out skillet and add about 1/4 cup water and and lobster tails; cover and let steam about 3 minutes; snip in half, lengthwise, with kitchen shears, and set aside.
- Add clams to skillet, cover and cook clams, shaking occasionally, until one opens, then add mussels.
- Re-cover and cook, while shaking pan occasionally, until all shells open.
- Add seafood, including squid (calamari) to salsa verde and heat through, about 10 minutes.
- Serve with optional garnishes.
- ------------------------------------------OR---------------------------------------------.
- Once, salsa verde is finished simmering, pour it into an oven-safe covered casserole (a pretty one for serving).
- Add seafood, stir, cover, and bake at 325 degrees F until bubbly, about 30 minutes.
- Bring to the table in the casserole dish; pass optional garnishes.

PESCADO EN SALSA VERDE (FISH FILLETS IN GREEN SAUCE)
From "A Taste of Old Cuba." this recipe originally came from a 1950's Cuban TV cooking show--Cocina al Minuto--and can be made in 30 minutes and it couldn't be easier. You can use any white fleshed fish (snapper, flounder, grouper, etc.) and it's a great meal with rice, salad, and good bread to sop up the sauce. I like to add one little hot red pepper, chopped, but that's up to you--as is the amount of garlic.

Steps:
- Blot the fillets dry--really dry--to avoid a watery sauce.
- In a blender, combine olive oil, wine, vinegar, parsley, onion, garlic, salt and pepper and blend on high until smooth.
- In a large skillet, arrange the fish snugly in a single layer and pour the sauce over the fish.
- If the fish won't fit in one layer, arrange the fish in two layers, pouring half the sauce over the first layer and the rest over the top.
- Bring the sauce to a boil over high heat.
- Immediately reduce the heat to low, partially cover the pan and gently simmer the fish for 15 to 20 minutes or until the fish flakes when pierced with a fork.
- Cooking time depends on the thickness of your fillets; if they are thin, they will be done in less time.
