Smoky Bacon Corn Stew Recipes

Steps:

• Boil a large pan of water for the corn. Make a sauce by mixing the ketchup, sugar and vinegar with half the paprika. Heat a non-stick frying pan, then brown the pork for 3-4 mins on each side. Spoon over the sauce halfway through cooking and turn the steaks in it until the pork is cooked through and sticky.
• Meanwhile, tip the corn into the boiling water and cook for 5-8 mins until tender. Stir the remaining paprika into the butter in a heatproof bowl and microwave on High for 15-20 secs until the paprika is sizzling in the melted butter (alternatively, just melt the smoky butter in a small pan). Drain the corn, brush over the butter, then serve with the sticky pork steaks and a green salad.

Steps:

• In a large pot over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain on a paper towel and crumble into small pieces and set aside, reserving the fat in the pot.
• Pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat, return the pot to medium heat, and add onion, carrot, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes more. Add jalapeño and cumin and cook, stirring, 1 minute more.
• Add broth, sweet potato, chiles, oregano, and bay leaves and bring to a simmer. Cook until sweet potato is tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the turkey or chicken and corn and cook until warmed through, 3 to 5 minutes. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and half-and-half. Continue to cook until just warmed through. Taste and adjust seasoning, thinning the chowder with another 1/4 cup half-and-half, if desired.
• Serve chowder topped with crumbled bacon, scallions, and parsley.

Steps:

• In a large, heavy bottomed pot set over medium heat, cook the bacon until it begins to render its fat. Add the garlic, and cook until it turns translucent.
• Add the clams, corn and white wine, then stir in the pimentón. Increase heat to high, and cook for approximately 30 seconds, to evaporate the alcohol. Lower heat to medium low, cover the pot and steam until the clams have all opened and the corn is tender, approximately 8-10 minutes. (Discard any unopened clams.)
• Using tongs and a spoon, remove all the clams and corn and bacon from the pot, and place in large, warm bowl, with a healthy dose of broth, a scattering of Aleppo pepper and the torn basil, and drizzle with olive oil.
