Recipe Introduction
I had some seafood soup at this Brazilian restaurant, Greenfield in Queens, NY. It was so good. So I decided to try and create my own. This is what I came up with. I must say, it wasn't bad at all for my first try.
List of Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds large shrimps, shelled and deveined (Save Shells**)
4 medium red potatoes, cubed
1 medium red onion, diced
2 cup of bow tie pasta, cooked (or your favorite pasta)
1 (8 oz) can sliced carrots
1 (8 oz) can corn
1 small jar or can sliced mushrooms
1 can bumblebee whole baby clams
1 cup mussels (fresh or frozen)
1 can tomato sauce, low sodium
1 (14.5 oz) contadina (recipe ready) diced tomato Marinara
2 packs Goya Sazo'n Seasoning (tomato flavor)
4 packs Goya Sazo'n Seasoning
1 pack Goya Vegetable/Salad Seasoning
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon basil
1/2 teaspoon parsley
7 to 8 cups shrimp stock**
3 Tablespoons flour
2 Tablespoon margarine or olive oil
Recipe
Add potato to stock in large pot. Add vegetables seasoning. Cook until half done.
Add corn, carrots, tomato sauce, mushrooms, onions, diced tomatoes, diced tomato, clams, shrimps, cooked pasta and seasonings. Cook until potatoes are done.
Add flour in a small bowl, add cold water very slowly to make a paste. Add very slowly to soup, stirring constantly until it thickens. Cook 5 minutes more. Add olive oil or margarine.
Adjust seasonings. Serve with crusty bread. I like mines with garlic bread.
You can also use sliced calamara and lobster to this soup or whatever seafood you want.
**STOCK:
I make my own shrimp stock. Whenever I have shrimp, I freeze the shells, so I can make stock when I need it.
Wash shrimp shells thoroughly. Add 8 cups of water to large pot.
Add seasonings of your choice. I use salt, pepper, 1 chopped onion and Sazo'n seasoning. Bring to a boil and simmer for thirty minutes. Let sit for about 15 minutes.
Strain through cheese cloth. If you don't have enough to make soup (8) cups, add chicken broth or water to make up the difference.
The next time I make this, I will do it in my slow cooker.
Enjoy!! I sure did.
