SPICY CAJUN SEAFOOD STEW RECIPE - (4.4/5)

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.

SPICY & EASY CAJUN STEW

Steps:

• Put some good Louisana Blues on - don't be afraid to turn it up! Tab Benoit is a good choice. Or Doug Kershaw!
• Open a cold beer - to be authentic, find some Dixie Beer!
• Slice the kielbasa into bite size pieces. In a large skillet, saute the kielbasa until lightly brown. Drain. Add the tomatoes and broth. Bring to a boil, and cook for 2 - 3 minutes. Turn off the heat. Stir in the rice; cover and let stand for 5 minutes. Stir and serve.
• I added 1/2 a chicken breast, cubed and sauted in ground fresno pepper and garlic, and increased the broth to 2 1/2 cups and the rice to 1 1/4 cup. I also added crushed red pepper to the mix. Ground cayenne pepper or ground cajun spice coud be used instead of the fresnos. Kicked it up a notch, I must say. Certainly didn't add any Tobasco!
