Irish Creole Seafood Stew

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share with you my twist on a classic seafood stew. This dish is perfect for a cozy winter evening when you want something hearty and comforting. The combination of Irish and Creole flavors may sound unusual, but trust me, it works wonders in this dish!

Ingredients:

  • cod fillets, cut into chunks
  • shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • clams, scrubbed
  • mussels, scrubbed and debearded
  • onion, diced
  • green bell pepper, diced
  • celery stalks, diced
  • garlic, minced
  • diced tomatoes
  • fish stock
  • dried thyme
  • paprika
  • cayenne pepper
  • <li data-ingredient="Salt and pepper to taste

    <li data-ingredient="Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Kitchen Tools:

  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • large pot/li>
  • wooden spoon

To start, heat some oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add in the onions, bell pepper, and celery, and sauté until softened. Stir in the garlic, thyme, paprika, and cayenne pepper, cooking for another minute until fragrant.

Next, pour in the diced tomatoes and fish stock, bringing the mixture to a simmer. Add in the clams and mussels, covering the pot and allowing them to steam until they start to open. Then, add in the cod and shrimp, cooking until the seafood is opaque and cooked through.

Season the stew with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley. This stew pairs perfectly with a slice of crusty bread to soak up all the delicious flavors.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 1200g, with 4 servings at around 300g each. One serving is estimated to be around 350 calories.

One tip to elevate this dish is to add a splash of Irish whiskey towards the end of cooking for an extra depth of flavor. It’s a little secret that will take your seafood stew to the next level!

I hope you give this Irish Creole Seafood Stew a try and enjoy it as much as I do. Feel free to customize the seafood selection based on your preferences and make it your own. Happy cooking!
