Categories     main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 main-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1/2 cup dry white wine
10 pounds quahogs or other large clams, scrubbed
5 tablespoons olive oil
5 ounces (about 1 cup) diced slab bacon
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 large onion, diced
1/4 bulb fennel, diced
1 stalk celery, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 medium carrot, diced
2 bay leaves
1 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
2 small dried red chili peppers, crushed, or 1/2 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon tomato paste
3/4 pound (1 large) Yukon Gold potato, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 cup bottled clam juice
6 vine-ripe tomatoes, cored and diced
4 to six 6-ounce hake fillets
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 pound dried chorizo, sliced into thin rounds
1 pound bay scallops, optional

Steps:

  • In a large heavy-bottomed pot, combine wine with 1 1/2 cups water. Place over high heat, and bring to a boil. Add clams, cover, and cook until they open, about 5 minutes. Discard unopened or cracked clams, and transfer others to a bowl. Strain liquid through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl; set aside. When clams are cool enough to handle, remove from shells and chop into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • In a large soup pot, heat 3 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Add bacon and sauté until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Add garlic, onion, fennel, celery, bell pepper, carrot, bay leaves, oregano and chili peppers. Sauté until softened, about 10 minutes. Add tomato paste and sauté for 2 minutes. Add potato, reserved clam broth and bottled clam juice. Bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer until potatoes are tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Add tomatoes, cook for 2 minutes, and shut off heat.
  • Place a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, and add 2 remaining tablespoons olive oil. Season hake on both sides with salt and pepper to taste. When oil is hot, sear skin-side down for 2 minutes, then flip and cook until opaque in center, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add chorizo to pan, and sauté until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Transfer to a plate. If using scallops, add to pan and sauté just until opaque, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
  • Add clams to pot of chowder. Reheat if necessary, and adjust salt and pepper to taste. To serve, ladle chowder into bowls and top with hake, chorizo and scallops. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use fresh clams: Fresh clams will give your chowder the best flavor. If you can't find fresh clams, you can use frozen clams, but be sure to thaw them completely before using.
  • Cook the chorizo first: Cooking the chorizo first will help to render the fat and add flavor to the chowder.
  • Use a good quality clam broth: The clam broth is the base of the chowder, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that is made with real clams and has a rich flavor.
  • Don't overcook the fish: Fish cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. The fish should be cooked through, but it should still be flaky.
  • Serve with crusty bread: Crusty bread is the perfect accompaniment to clam chowder. It's great for dipping in the chowder or for mopping up any extra broth.

Conclusion:

Manhattan clam chowder is a delicious and hearty soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It's made with fresh clams, chorizo, potatoes, and vegetables, and it's simmered in a creamy broth. This recipe for Manhattan clam chowder with hake and chorizo is a delicious variation on the classic dish. The hake adds a flaky texture to the chowder, and the chorizo adds a smoky flavor.
