1 tablespoon olive oil
8 ounces smoked andouille sausage, diced (1 1/2 cups)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 bell peppers, red and/or green, chopped (about 2 1/2 cups)
1 onion, chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)
One 8-ounce bottle clam juice
One 15-ounce can diced tomatoes
1 pound firm white fish, such as halibut, grouper or black sea bass, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1 pound peeled and deveined large shrimp (21 to 25 shrimp)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves

Cooked white rice, for serving

Steps:

  • 1. Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a large pot or Dutch oven. Cook the sausage until browned, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the sausage and cook, stirring, until lightly toasted and the meat is well coated, about 2 minutes. Add the Cajun seasoning, garlic, peppers and onions and continue to cook until the vegetables are softened, 5 minutes. Add the clam juice, tomatoes and 4 cups water, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot, and increase the heat to bring to a simmer.
  • 2. Lower the heat slightly and simmer until the stew is thickened and the flavors are melded, about 30 minutes. Gently stir in the fish and shrimp. Cook, making sure the stew is not bubbling vigorously, stirring once or twice, until the shrimp and fish have just turned opaque, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley. Season with salt and serve over rice.

SPICY CAJUN SEAFOOD STEW RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon olive oil
8 ounces smoked andouille sausage, diced, about 1 1/2 cups
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 bell peppers, red and/or green, chopped, about 2 1/2 cups
1 onion, chopped, about 1 1/2 cups
1 (8-ounce) bottle clam juice
1 can diced tomatoes, 15 ounces
1 pound firm white fish, such as halibut, grouper or black sea bass, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1 pound peeled and deveined large shrimp, 25 to 35 count
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
Kosher salt to taste
cooked white rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a large pot or Dutch oven. Cook the sausage until browned, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the sausage and cook, stirring, until lightly toasted and the meat is well coated, about 2 minutes. Add the Cajun seasoning, garlic, peppers and onions and continue to cook until the vegetables are softened, 5 minutes. Add the clam juice, tomatoes and 4 cups water, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot, and increase the heat to bring to a simmer. Lower the heat slightly and simmer until the stew is thickened and the flavors are melded, about 30 minutes. Gently stir in the fish and shrimp. Cook, making sure the stew is not bubbling vigorously, stirring once or twice, until the shrimp and fish have just turned opaque, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley. Season with salt and serve over rice.

Tips:

  • Utilize a heavy-bottomed pot: To guarantee equal heat distribution and prevent sticking, use a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven.
  • Prep your seafood: Before cooking, make sure your seafood is cleaned, deveined, and cut into uniform pieces.
  • Sauté your aromatics: To create a flavorful base for your stew, sauté onions, garlic, and other aromatics in olive oil until softened.
  • Use a variety of seafood: For a more complex flavor profile, combine different types of seafood, such as shrimp, mussels, clams, and fish.
  • Add a flavorful liquid: To enhance the stew's taste, use a flavorful liquid like fish stock, clam juice, or white wine.
  • Season generously: Add a generous amount of salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also incorporate herbs like thyme, oregano, or basil.
  • Simmer until seafood is cooked: Bring the stew to a simmer and cook until the seafood is opaque and cooked through. Avoid overcooking to prevent tough seafood.
  • Finish with a touch of acid: For a brighter flavor, add a squeeze of lemon juice or a splash of white wine vinegar just before serving.
  • Garnish and serve: Enhance the presentation of your stew by garnishing it with fresh herbs, lemon wedges, or a dollop of sour cream.
