Rhode Island Lobster Stew Recipes

Steps:

• In a deep pot over medium-high flame, heat the olive oil for 1 minute. Add hot pepper and garlic. Cook until the pepper and garlic turn black, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the leeks and onions and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the tomatoes, sweet potatoes and 2 cups of the wine. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes.
• Add the lobsters, cover pot, and cook until the lobsters turn pinkish, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining cup of wine to the pot and cook, covered, for 5 more minutes.
• Remove the lobsters and set aside until cool enough to handle. When cooled, crack the claw shells and the body shell. Return to the pot for 5 more minutes.
• Transfer the lobsters to a baking sheet with sides. Break off the claws of the lobsters; remove the meat from the body and cut it into bite-size pieces. Return any lobster juices on the sheet to the pot. In large plates or shallow soup bowls, spoon some vegetable mixture over the bottom and place a lobster claw and some body meat on top.

Steps:

• MELT the butter in a large Dutch oven or heavy soup pot with a lid. Add the onion and cook over medium heat until softened, 5 to 7 minutes.
• While the onion cooks, Brown the sausage in a large skillet.
• ADD the sausage, potatoes, wine, and water to the onion. Bring the broth to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, until the potatoes are just tender, 20 to 30 minutes.
• STIR in the corn and bring to a boil. Season the broth lightly with salt to taste. Reduce the heat, add the clams, and cover the pot. Simmer until the clams open, 5 to 7 minutes. Discard any clams that don't open. Spoon the stew into large bowls and top with parsley. Serve with lemon slices, hot pepper sauce, and bread.
