Cioppino - Shellfish And Tomato Stew
- 3/4 cup white wine
- 11/4 pounds clams
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus extra to finish
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon tomato paste
- 1 pound ripe tomatoes, cut into 1/2-inch dice
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon fresh oregano, roughly chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, plus extra to taste
- Freshly ground pepper, to taste
- 1 lemon
- 6 ounces large scallops
- 7 ounces large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 ounces feta, crumbled
- 1 scallion, outer layer removed and sliced thin on bias
- 1. Set medium pot fitted with lid over medium-high heat. Add wine and reduce for 2 minutes, or until 1/4 its original volume. Meanwhile, set fine mesh strainer over small bowl.
- 2. Add clams to pot and cover with lid. Shaking pot occasionally, cook 3-4 minutes, or until all clams open. Pour contents through strainer, separating clams from cooking liquid.
- 3. Set 10-inch oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Stir in olive oil and garlic and cook 1 minute, or until garlic turns golden. Add tomato paste and cook 30 seconds, stirring constantly so garlic does not burn.
- 4. Add tomatoes, clam cooking liquid, sugar, oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to pan. Using a vegetable peeler, remove 2 long strips of zest from lemon and add to pan. Simmer 15-17 minutes, or until sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste. While sauce simmers, preheat broiler and remove 3/4 of clams from shells.
- 5. Stir scallops into sauce and cook 1 minute. Remove from heat, stir in shelled clams and shrimp, and scatter feta and scallions over top. Nestle clams in shells into sauce.
- 6. Transfer pan to oven and broil 3-5 minutes, or until shrimp and scallops are just cooked through.
- 7. To serve, squeeze 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice over top. Finish with a drizzle of olive oil.
