Time 30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup vegetable oil, divided
1 cup medium diced onions
1 cup medium diced celery
1 cup medium diced carrots
2 quarts lobster, shrimp broth or fish stock
1 pound catfish pieces
1 pound shucked oysters (about 6 dozen oysters in shell)
3 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
1 pint grape tomatoes
3 bay leaves
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • In a large pot (8-quart capacity) heat 1/4 cup of the oil. Saute onions, celery, and carrots for about 5 minutes until onions become translucent and celery and carrots begin to soften. Add broth and bring to a simmer. Add fish, oysters, Cajun seasoning, tomatoes, bay leaves, and salt and pepper, and cook until fish becomes opaque. In a separate bowl, mix the other 1/2 cup of oil with the flour, and stir this mixture gently into the stew to thicken. Cook for a few minutes more to integrate flavors.
