Potato And Olive Stew With Tomato Sauce Food

POTATO AND OLIVE STEW WITH TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large, heavy and deep non-reactive skillet, heat the olive oil over high heat and saute the potatoes until they turn a golden brown on all sides, about five minutes. They don't need to cook through because they will continue cooking in the sauce.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Remove potatoes from skillet and add onions, saute until transparent, about three minutes, then add the garlic and chili pepper. After a few seconds, pour in the wine and add the oregano, tomatoes and olives. Cook for one minute, then remove from heat.
• Place potatoes in clay or glass ovenproof pan that can hold them in one layer. Pour sauce over them and bake uncovered for 30 to 45 minutes -- adding a little water if needed -- or until the potatoes are tender. Taste after 15 minutes and add salt if needed -- the olives are quite salty -- or more chili pepper. Sprinkle with parsley and serve while still hot.

COUNTRY-STYLE POTATO AND TOMATO STEW WITH POACHED COD

Steps:

• Heat oil in a 3-quart non-reactive saucepan over medium high heat, add the onions and cook until browned and softened, about 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic, tomatoes, chicken broth, potatoes, pepper flakes, and salt, stir until combined. Cover and reduce heat to medium and cook 45 minutes or until potatoes are almost mushy but have not lost their shape.
• Pour half the potatoes and tomatoes in a refrigerator dish for tomorrow night's quick vegetable beef stew. Lay cod over stew, cover and steam until tender and fish begins to flake, 5 to 7 minutes. Serve immediately.
• In a large soup pot, heat olive oil over medium high heat, add stew meat, and cook until browned on all sides, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add leftover potatoes and tomatoes, chicken stock, green beans and corn. Cook until vegetables are done, about 6 to 8 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve immediately.

SAUSAGE STEW (WITH PEPPER, ONIONS AND POTATOES)

Steps:

• Heat olive oil to a medium high heat in Dutch oven or heavy pot. Add the sausage and cook on all sides. About 15 minutes.
• Add garlic and stir for a minute or two. Add peppers and onions, stirring to coat with oil. Add tomato paste, diced tomato, potatoes and tomato sauce. Stir to combine.
• Add seasonings, cheese, and water. Stir once more. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 45 minutes.
• Potatoes should be tender. Sprinkle liberally with Romano cheese. Serve with garlic bread and a salad. Makes 6 servings.

CHICKEN, TOMATO, AND POTATO STEW

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add in the diced onion, saute for 5 minutes until softened, then add in the minced garlic and saute for another minute or so until fragrant.
• Add in the rest of the ingredients, except for the sour cream, and turn the heat up to medium-high. Stir to combine and cook for 25-30 minutes, until cooked through and slightly thickened.
• Place the 2 tablespoons of sour cream in a small container and add in a few spoonfuls of broth from the stew. Whisk together to temper the sour cream (this makes sure that the sour cream doesn't clump when added to the stew).
• Add in the tempered sour cream to the stew and stir to combine. Taste for seasoning and spoon into bowls.

SALMON AND POTATOES IN TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large, straight-sided skillet, heat oil over medium. Add onion and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, 8 minutes. Add tomatoes and juice; cook until liquid is slightly reduced, 10 minutes. Reserve half the tomato sauce (about 3 cups) for another use.
• Add potatoes, olives, and 1/2 cup water to skillet with remaining sauce. Partially cover and cook until potatoes are almost tender, 8 minutes. Stir in parsley. Season salmon with salt and pepper; nestle among potatoes and sauce. Cover and cook until fish is opaque throughout and potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife, 10 minutes. Serve salmon with potatoes and sauce.
