Seafood Stew (Crock Pot) image

This is very good, hearty and low cal/low fat! I made this when I wanted to use what I had on hand -- all the seafood and chicken was in the freezer and the cans of tomatoes (which I always have on hand) in the pantry plus some celery and peppers from the fridge - and dinner was on its way! I made a few changes to the original recipe from The Healthy Slow Cooker based on what I had on hand and spiced it up a bit. I used 1 can of tomatoes w/ green chiles (but the original recipe calls for 19 oz of canned tomatoes) and some tomato juice I wanted to use up. The recipe below is how I made the recipe - but this recipe is very adaptable to personal tastes or what is on hand.

Time 5h

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 onions, diced
4 stalks celery, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon peppercorn, cracked
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon flour
3 cups vegetable broth (or chicken broth)
1 (10 ounce) can tomatoes and green chilies (see note in description)
1 -2 cup tomato juice (see note in description)
1 lb chicken breast, cut into bite size pieces
8 ounces shrimp, thawed (if frozen)
5 ounces clams (I used frozen, thawed, but the original recipe suggests canned clams, drained)
2 bell peppers, diced (I used red bell peppers, but the original recipe suggests 1 red and 1 green bell pepper)
1 jalapeno pepper, chopped
1/2 cup parsley, chopped (I used a lot less)
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 pinch cayenne pepper
8 ounces scallops, halved
1 tablespoon butter
hot pepper sauce

Steps:

  • In a large skillet heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and celery and cook stirring for 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
  • Add garlic, oregano, peppercorns and cook stirring for another minute.
  • Stir in tomato paste and flour and cook another minute.
  • Add vegetable broth (or chicken broth), tomatoes and tomato juice and bring to a boil. Continue to cook for about 3-5 more minutes. Remove from heat and transfer mixture to crock pot.
  • Add chicken and stir to combine. Cover and cook on high for 3 hours or low for 6 hours.
  • Stir in shrimp, clams, peppers, and parsley. Cover and cook on high for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile in a baggie combine chili powder and cayenne. Add scallops and toss to coat.
  • In a skillet over medium heat melt butter and add scallops and cook, stirring for 3-5 minutes or until scallops are opaque.
  • Add scallops to crock pot, stirring in well.
  • Spoon soup in bowls and serve with hot pepper sauce if desired. I thought this was spicy enough without the Tabasco sauce - but my son added a lot to his serving.
