Thai Shrimp And Scallop Chowder Recipes

SCALLOP AND SHRIMP CHOWDER

Steps:

• Stir broth, potatoes, corn, onion, and flour together in a 3 1/2-quart slow cooker crock.
• Cook on Low until potatoes are tender, about 6 hours.
• Stir cream, scallops, shrimp, potato flakes, and garlic pepper into the broth. Cook on High until slightly thickened, 35 to 45 minutes. Season with salt.

THAI CORN CHOWDER

Steps:

• Cut off the corn kernels; set aside. Combine the cobs, 1 cup potatoes, 1/2 cup scallions, 1 tablespoon ginger, the garlic, peppercorns and 5 cups water in a pot. Smash the lemongrass, if using, and add to the pot. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 25 to 30 minutes.
• About 10 minutes before the broth is finished, melt the butter over medium-high heat in a separate pot. Add the remaining 1 cup potatoes, season with salt and cook until slightly soft, 5 minutes. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon ginger and the jalapeno; cook 1 minute. Add the corn kernels; cook until the vegetables are just tender, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Strain the broth, pressing out as much liquid as possible; discard the solids. Add 2 cups of the strained broth to the potatoes and corn; bring to a boil, cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Add the coconut milk, basil and mint; season with salt. Stir until simmering. Remove from the heat and add the radishes, cilantro and lime juice. Top with diced tomato and the remaining 1/4 cup scallions and serve with lime wedges.

SCALLOP AND SHRIMP CHOWDER

Steps:

• Saute onion and celery in skillet or dutch oven coated with cooking spray for about 5 minutes (or until tender).
• Add minced garlic and saute another minute.
• Add diced potato, 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 3/4 teaspoons pepper; cook another 2 minutes. Sprinkle flour over potato mixture and cook another minute or two.
• Add clam juice and skim milk; bring just to a boil, stirring constantly, and then reduce heat immediately. Simmer for about 20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
• With a slotted spoon, remove at least 2 cups of potato/celery/onion mixture. Puree and add back to soup.
• Stir in remaining salt and pepper, as well as aniseseed and thyme. (Note re: anise -- it makes a big difference in flavor if you can buy whole aniseseed and grind it yourself. If not, just use bottled ground anise.) Simmer 10 minutes.
• Add scallops and shrimp; cook about 5 minutes, or until shellfish are cooked.
• Add half-and-half and cook a few more minutes, until heated thoroughly.

SHRIMP AND SCALLOP CHOWDER

Steps:

• Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Place rice and 1/2 can clam juice in a blender; puree until smooth.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large stock pot over medium heat. Add onion, ham, and garlic; cook and stir until garlic starts to pop, about 10 minutes. Mix in potatoes, salt, and pepper. Add the remaining 2 1/2 cans clam juice. Cover the chowder base and cook until potatoes are fork-tender, about 15 minutes.
• Dice shrimp into small pieces. Add shrimp and scallops to the chowder base. Cook until shrimp turns pink and scallops are opaque, about 5 minutes. Stir in the rice puree, the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, corn, garlic powder, and onion powder. Reduce heat to low. Simmer, covered, until flavors combine, about 5 minutes.

THAI CURRIED SHRIMP AND SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Using a food processor, puree the ginger and garlic.
• Add in the rest of the sauce ingredients to form a relatively thick paste.
• It's best to refrigerate the paste for a few hours to let the flavors inter-mingle, but if you have to use it right away, than do so.
• Heat the oil over high heat, and add the scallops and shrimp when the pan (or wok) is uniformly hot.
• At the same time, boil some water for the noodles (or you can serve with rice if you want).
• Stir the shrimp and scallops frequently for about 2 minutes, until slightly browned.
• Add in the paste, and reduce heat slightly, coating the scallops and shrimp thoroughly.
• After about 90 seconds, slowly stir in a can of coconut milk.
• Reduce heat and simmer for a few minutes to reduce the liquid.
• Serve over noodles or rice.
