Seafood Stew Recipe
Description
The Seafood Stew combines peeled jumbo shrimp, clams, mussels, scallops, and ripe tomato pieces in a broth made by toasting shrimp shells and simmering them with parsley and water. Butter and olive oil sauté a base of minced garlic and finely chopped shallots, to which white wine and the prepared shrimp broth are added. Shellfish are cooked covered until they open, releasing their natural brininess into the stew. Tomatoes and scallops are then added with fresh parsley and the large shrimp finishes cooking in this fragrant, savory liquid. Seasoned simply with salt and pepper, this stew captures the delicate sweetness of seafood.
Serve the stew immediately to enjoy the textures of tender scallops and plump shellfish. Complement the dish with crusty garlic bread or French toast to soak up the broth, drawing out the flavors of the shellfish and wine.
