Green Chile Oyster Chowder Recipes

Steps:

• Remove the claws from the lobsters. Carefully crack the claws and try to remove the meat in 1 piece and set aside for garnish. Remove the tail meat and chop into 1-inch chunks and set aside in the refrigerator. Reserve the shells.
• Melt butter in a medium stockpot over medium heat; add the onions and garlic and cook until soft. Increase heat to high, add the wine, lobster shells, and corn cobs and cook until completely reduced. Add 4 cups of the lobster stock and bring to a boil. Add 2 cups of the corn and let cook for 15 minutes. Remove the lobster shells and corn cobs.
• Transfer the soup to a food processor and process until smooth. Strain into a clean saucepan and bring to a simmer. Stir in the lobster meat, remaining 1 cup of roasted corn kernels and green chiles and cook for 5 minutes.
• Place heavy cream in a medium saucepan and reduce by half. Add the reduced cream to the chowder and stir until combined, if the chowder appears too thick, add some of the remaining lobster stock to thinly slightly. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the cilantro. Ladle into bowls and top with a few tablespoons of relish, a lobster claw and fresh cilantro leaves.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Remove corn from water, place on baking sheets and roast in the oven until tender and slightly charred, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool slightly, remove husks and kernels and place kernels in a bowl.
• Add the remaining ingredients and stir until combined. Let relish sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

Steps:

• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place poblano peppers with cut sides down onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Cook under the preheated broiler until the skin of the peppers has blackened and blistered, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Place blackened peppers into a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Allow peppers to steam as they cool, about 20 minutes.
• While peppers cool, heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Cook and stir celery, onion, green chiles, red bell pepper, garlic, white pepper, coriander, and ras el hanout until onions and celery are clear and soft, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Peel cooled peppers and discard skin. Chop and stir into the pan. Pour in vegetable broth and evaporated milk and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in pepper Jack cheese, Parmesan cheese, and paprika. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Cook oysters and reserved liquid in a skillet over medium heat until edges curl, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.
• Combine onion, potato, broccoli, water, and corn in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain vegetables and reserve liquid.
• Melt butter in a large pan over medium heat. Stir flour into melted butter until smooth, about 1 minute. Slowly pour reserved vegetable water and milk into butter-flour mixture; cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Add oysters and vegetables to milk mixture and cook over medium-low heat until heated through, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Boil potatoes in water for 4 minutes, drain, rinse and let cool. Set aside.
• Over low heat cook onion and bay leaf in one cup of clam broth (or fish stock) for 15-20 minutes until cooked through. Discard bay leaf and let cool.
• Fry the green chiles in the oil for about 4-5 minutes or until skin blisters but not black. Skin chiles, remove seeds and cut into 1/2 inch dice.
• Steam the corn in 1/4 cup water for 2 minutes until tender (or use frozen thawed corn kernals).
• In a large soup pot, combine the oysters with their liquid, the remaining broth (1 1/2 cups) and the green chiles and cook over low heat for 2-5 minutes, then add the potatoes, onion and red pepper and bring to a boil over medium high heat. Stir in half-and-half (or heavy cream), keeping mixture below a boil (or half-and-half will seperate). Stir in salt, corn and butter.
• Pour soup into soup bowls and garnish with marjoram.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine corn, cream cheese and green chiles.
• Heat over medium high heat until the cream cheese is melted and smooth.
• Add shredded Cheddar cheese and seasonings; heat until cheese is melted.
• Pour into greased casserole dish and top with additional Cheddar cheese, as much as you like.
• Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven until cheese is melted and bubbling, about 25 minutes.
• NOTE: I drained one can of corn and did not drain the other can.
• You may prefer to drain both cans if you want less sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat over to 350°F.
• In a saucepan, combine both cans of corn, green chilies, cream cheese and cheddar cheese and cook over medium high heat until cheeses are melted. Stir frequently.
• Once the cheese are melted pour the mixture into a greased casserole dish and bake for 20 minutes.
• Top the casserole with the dried onion rings and bake for another 5 minutes.
