Zuppa Di Pesce Alla Napoletana Neapolitan Style Fish Stew Food

ZUPPA DI PESCE

Steps:

• Heat a large Dutch oven or heavy pot to medium-low and saute the shallot and fennel in extra virgin olive oil. After they soften a bit (5 minutes) add in the garlic and cook for 2 minutes more until fragrant.
• Next, add the crushed red pepper flakes, cook for 30 seconds, then add the wine and turn heat to medium-high. Scrape the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon to dislodge the brown bits. Cook the wine for 90 seconds then turn the heat to medium and add the tomatoes and clam juice. Cook the sauce at a moderate simmer for 10 minutes before adding any seafood.
• Add the calamari and cook for 15 minutes to soften. Next, add the fish and cook for 5 more minutes, then add the clams and cover with a lid. Cook for 5-7 minutes longer or until the clams just start to open.
• Finally, add the mussels and shrimp and cover with the lid. Cook until the shrimp are pink and cooked through and the mussels open (about 5-7 minutes). Any clams or mussels that do not open should be discarded because they are most likely dead.
• Taste test and adjust salt and pepper levels. When satisfied turn the heat off and add the parsley. Serve in bowls with toasted Italian bread that has been rubbed with a garlic clove. Also, drizzle your best extra virgin olive oil onto each plate as well. Enjoy!

ZUPPA DI PESCE - ADRIATIC FISH STEW RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• Croutons. Preheat the oven to 350°. Arrange the bread on a baking sheet and brush with the olive oil. Toast for about 20 minutes, until lightly browned. Rub the croutons on one side with the garlic. Stew. Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil over moderately high heat. Add the squid, stir once and drain immediately. Plunge the squid into a bowl of cold water, then drain thoroughly. Heat the olive oil in a large, high-sided non-reactive skillet. Add the onion and garlic and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until the onion is translucent, about seven Minutes. When the garlic is golden, discard it. Transfer the onion to a bowl. Add the fish heads, bones, tails and the shrimp shells to the skillet and cook over high heat, stirring, for 5 minutes. Add ¼ cup of the wine and cook, stirring, until slightly reduced, about 2 minutes. Stir in ½ cup of water and strain the mixture, pressing on the solids. Wipe out the skillet and return the liquid to it. Add the cooked onion to the skillet with the remaining 1/4 cup wine and the vinegar and simmer over moderate heat until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes with their liquid and season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes, crushing the tomatoes with a wooden spoon. Cover and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Spread the firmest fish-skate, monkfish and halibut-in the skillet in a single layer. Cook over moderate heat for 2 minutes, then turn the pieces over. Add the more delicate fish-red snapper, sea bass, whiting, haddock-and the shrimp to the skillet and top with the clams. The sauce should barely cover the fish; if necessary, add a little water. Cover and simmer over moderately low heat until the fish is cooked through and most of the clams have opened, about 10 minutes. Transfer the fish, shrimp and opened clams to a large warmed serving bowl and cover loosely with foil. Boil the broth over moderately high heat until reduced to about 4 cups, removing the clams as they open. Stir the squid into the broth to rewarm them. Pour the sauce and squid over the seafood. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve with croutons.
