Clam Brodetto Recipes

Steps:

• Season the swordfish with salt. Pour some flour on a plate and dredge the swordfish in the flour. Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Working in batches, cook the swordfish until golden on all sides, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Reduce the heat to medium; add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil to the pot. Add the garlic, onion and red pepper flakes and cook about 3 minutes. Season with salt and add the wine. Cover and cook, stirring a few times, until the onion is tender, about 5 more minutes.
• Add the seafood to the pot in layers, starting with the clams, then the shrimp, calamari rings and tentacles, and the swordfish. Cover and cook until the clams have just opened, about 6 minutes. Lightly stir, cover again and simmer 5 more minutes. Discard any clams that do not open. Stir in the butter, parsley, vinegar and salt to taste. Serve with bread.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan, Dutch oven, or preferably a clay pot over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, carrot, celery, bay leaves, parsley, and red pepper flakes. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in the mashed tomatoes and cook for 15 minutes over medium heat. Add the fish. Pour in the vinegar or wine. Cook until the liquid has almost evaporated, about 10 minutes; pour in the fish stock. Cover, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Gently mix in the clams. Cook until clams have opened (discard any that don't open) about 2 minutes, and then stir in the shrimp. Cook until the shrimp are pink, about 3 minutes.
• Place a slice of toasted bread in the bottom of each bowl. Ladle brodetto over the bread and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large stock pot over medium high heat add olive oil, celery, spring onion, marjoram, parsley, thyme, and garlic sauti until onions begin to become transparent about 5 minutes.
• Add the vinegar, cherry tomatoes, peperoncino, canned whole tomato, cuttlefish and wine.
• Allow to come up to a simmer and then cook for 10 minutes.
• Add the Bass by placing on top of the broth and very gently pushing the fish down.
• Allow to cook 5 minutes.
• Add the mussels, razor clams, shrimp, and squid by placing on top of broth and fish gently pushing down with a large ladle and basting the shell fish with the hot broth.
• Cover stockpot with a lid and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until mussels and clams are all open and shrimp and squid are cooked through.
• Taste and season with salt and pepper.
• Carefully remove to serving platter and sprinkle parsley on top.

Steps:

• Pour the olive oil into a deep sauté pan over medium-high heat and add the Goat Horn pepper, chile flakes, and garlic. Sauté until soft but not colored. Add the white wine and cook until the alcohol evaporates, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the tomatoes and decrease the heat to a simmer. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes longer, until the mixture is thickened, then add the clams and beans and increase the heat. Cover immediately and cook over medium heat until the beans are heated through and the clams open, just a few minutes more. Discard any clams that don't open.
• Just before serving, add the lemon juice and parsley. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
