Subj : Winter Soups - 05 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Sun Jan 21 2024 07:50:41 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Provencal Fish Stew Categories: Seafood, Vegetables, Chilies, Beans, Greens Yield: 4 servings 1 c Cooked or canned chickpeas 4 tb Olive oil 1 c Fresh bread crumbs Salt & ground black pepper 1 tb Minced garlic 1/4 c Nicoise or oil-cured olives; - pitted, chopped 1 tb Capers; chopped 3 Anchovy fillets; finely - chopped 2 tb Tomato paste 1 lb Spinach 2 c Fish or vegetable stock, or - water pn Red chile flakes 8 oz Squid; roughly chopped 8 oz Shrimp; roughly chopped Drain chickpeas. If you used dried, reserve cooking liquid; if they are canned, discard the liquid and rinse the chickpeas. Put 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When it’s hot, add bread crumbs, sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until they’re crisp and toasted, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from pan. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the skillet; increase heat to medium-high. When oil is hot, add garlic, olives, capers and anchovies. Cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, a minute or two. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring occasionally, until it darkens slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Start adding spinach a handful at a time; keep stirring until all the spinach fits in the pan and starts to release its water; sprinkle with a little more pepper, then add the stock, chickpeas and red chile flakes if you’re using them. Adjust the heat so the mixture bubbles gently but steadily, then stir in the squid and the shrimp. Cook until the seafood is just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Divide among bowls, sprinkle with bread crumbs and serve. By: Mark Bittman Yield: 4 servings RECIPE FROM: https://cooking.nytimes.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM ....
