Best Seafood Stew With Grilled Garlic Bread Recipes

SEAFOOD STEW

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a Dutch oven or stockpot, add the onions, potatoes, fennel, salt, and pepper, and saute over medium-low heat for 15 minutes, until the onions begin to brown. Add the wine and scrape up the brown bits with a wooden spoon. Add the tomatoes with their juices, stock, garlic, and saffron to the pot, bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer uncovered for 15 minutes, until the potatoes are tender. Add the shrimp, fish, and mussels, bring to a boil, then lower the heat, cover, and cook for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and allow the pot to sit covered for another 5 minutes. The fish and shrimp should be cooked and the mussels opened. Discard any mussels that don't open. Stir in the Pernod, orange zest, and salt, to taste. Serve ladled over 1 or 2 slices of toasted baguette.;
• Warm the oil in the pan over medium heat. Add the shrimp shells, onions, carrots, and celery over medium heat for 15 minutes, until lightly browned. Add the garlic and cook 2 more minutes. Add 1 1¿2 quarts of water, the white wine, tomato paste, salt, pepper, and thyme. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 1 hour. Strain through a sieve, pressing the solids. You should have approximately 1 quart of stock. If not, you can make up the difference with water or white wine.

COD AND CHORIZO STEW WITH GRILLED GARLIC BREAD

Steps:

• Heat the 1/4 cup olive oil in a large saute pan or deep skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onions and chopped garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and just starting to brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the chorizo and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly rendered, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Crush the tomatoes by hand and add them to the pan along with their juices. Stir in the chipotle and paprika, then stir in the chickpeas and roasted red peppers; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then nestle the cod in the stew. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat until the cod is cooked through, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat a cast-iron grill pan over high heat. Brush the bread with olive oil and grill, flipping once, until lightly charred, 3 to 5 minutes. Rub the grilled bread with the whole garlic clove and season with salt and pepper.
• Garnish the stew and bread with the parsley and serve right away.

SEAFOOD STEW

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Place the tomatoes and garlic on a baking tray and broil until the tomatoes are charred all over and garlic is golden. (Tuck the garlic under the tomatoes as necessary to prevent burning.) Transfer to a blender and puree.
• Heat the olive oil in a heavy soup pot over moderate heat. Cook the onions with the salt and pepper until translucent. Pour in the wine, turn the heat up to high and reduce by half. Pour in the fish stock and bring back to a boil. Add the potatoes, carrots, garlic tomato puree and morita chile and cook 3 to 5 minutes. Add the fish. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, until the fish is just done. Sprinkle in the cilantro and serve immediately with lime wedges.
