    Seafood Chili

    Recipe courtesy Diana Shaw. All rights reserved.

    Ingredients:

    1 Tbs. vegetable oil
    2 large onions, chopped
    3 garlic cloves, crushed and minced
    1 red bell pepper, cored, seeded and sliced
    1 green bell pepper, cored, seeded and sliced
    2 tomatillos, papery skin removed, minced (optional)
    1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro
    2 Tbs. minced fresh oregano, or 1 Tbs. crumbled dried
    1 Tbs. chili powder
    2 tsp. ground cumin
    2 tsp. chipotle flakes, or to taste (optional)
    1/4 cup red or white wine (you can substitute 2 Tbs. balsamic vinegar)
    1 bay leaf
    2 cups chopped, peeled tomatoes, fresh or canned
    1 to 2 cups kidney beans and/or black beans
    Salt to taste
    1/3 lb. minced clams, drained
    1/2 lb. shrimp, shelled and deveined
    1/2 lb. sea scallops, rinsed, patted dry and cut into halves or quarters, depending on size

    Preparation:

    Heat vegetable oil in a large, heavy saucepan over medium high heat. When hot, add chopped onions, crushed and minced garlic cloves, green bell pepper, minced tomatillos, oregano, chili powder, cumin and chipotle pepper flakes. Lower heat to medium low and saute, stirring often, until onions and peppers are soft and limp, about 10 minutes.

    Add the red or white wine, turn up to medium high and stir until most of the liquid evaporates, about 2 minutes. Add bay leaf and fresh or canned tomatoes; reduce heat to medium and simmer gently, covered, until the sauce thickens, about 20 minutes. Stir in black or kidney beans, and add clams, shrimp and scallops; cook just until the shrimp are bright pink and the scallops are white and no longer glossy, about 5 minutes.
