Mariscada En Salsa Verde Daisy Recipes

MARISCADA EN SALSA VERDE (SEAFOOD STEW IN GREEN SAUCE)

Steps:

• Cook tomatillos in boiling water for about 3 minutes (they will change color), cool off in cold water for a couple of minutes, then chop in a food processor.
• Add onions and garlic to food processor and coarsely puree.
• Heat oil in a large saucepan and saute puree until onions are tender, about 5 minutes (I know this is hard to tell, but use your nose; the puree will smell strongly of onions, but once done, the aroma will be lessened).
• Stir in coconut milk, chicken stock, wine, and parsley; season with salt and pepper and hot sauce.
• Cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium high heat; add shrimp and saute until slightly seared, but not necessarily cooked through (will finish in the sauce), about 1 minute per side; set aside.
• Saute scallops until seared, about 2 minutes per side (will also finish in sauce); set aside.
• Wipe out skillet and add about 1/4 cup water and and lobster tails; cover and let steam about 3 minutes; snip in half, lengthwise, with kitchen shears, and set aside.
• Add clams to skillet, cover and cook clams, shaking occasionally, until one opens, then add mussels.
• Re-cover and cook, while shaking pan occasionally, until all shells open.
• Add seafood, including squid (calamari) to salsa verde and heat through, about 10 minutes.
• Serve with optional garnishes.

• Once, salsa verde is finished simmering, pour it into an oven-safe covered casserole (a pretty one for serving).
• Add seafood, stir, cover, and bake at 325 degrees F until bubbly, about 30 minutes.
• Bring to the table in the casserole dish; pass optional garnishes.

MARISCADA WITH GREEN SAUCE

• Using a spoon, push the clams to one side,then sprinkle the flour into the base of the pot and stir to make a thin,smooth paste. One at a time, add the mussels,shrimp,scallops and sherry and simmer until the sherry evaporates,about 3 minutes.Pour in the clam juice or fish stock and the asparagus juice. Simmer until the mussels and clams are fully opened and the shrimp and scallops are opaque,about 5 minutes more. Season to taste with salt. At the restaurant, this is served in the pot and spooned over rice.

SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Thread garlic onto skewer. Grill garlic, tomatillos, onion quarters, and chiles until dark brown spots form on all sides, about 9 minutes for onion, 6 minutes for tomatillos and chiles, and 4 minutes for garlic. Cool. Peel garlic. Trim core from onion. Scrape some of burnt skin off chiles; stem. Seed chiles for milder salsa, if desired. Coarsely chop onion, chiles, and garlic. Transfer tomatillos and all vegetables to blender. Add cilantro and 1/2 teaspoon sugar; puree until smooth. Season to taste with coarse salt.
• Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over high heat. Carefully add tomatillo mixture (juices may splatter). Stir until slightly thickened, stirring often, about 2 minutes. Add broth and 2 tablespoons lime juice. Bring to boil; reduce heat to medium and simmer until mixture measures 2 1/2 cups, about 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and more sugar and lime juice, if desired. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cool slightly, then cover and chill.

MORELOS SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• Place tomatillos, jalapenos, and garlic in a large pot. Pour in just enough water to cover the tomatillos; they will float, so press them down with your hand as you measure the water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the color of the tomatillos lightens to a yellow color, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and allow to cool for about 10 minutes.
• Strain the tomatillos, reserving the water. Place into the bowl of a blender; add the cloves, cumin, pepper, and chicken bouillon. Puree until smooth, use the reserved water as needed to adjust the consistency.
