My sister-in-law brought some scallops from Nova Scotia. They are awesome in this chowder. I add the broth, potatoes, corn, and flour to the slow cooker crock the night before, store in the refrigerator, and just turn it on in the morning. Great weeknight meal.

Shrimp and Scallop Chowder With Coconut Milk image

A seafood chowder with a tropical accent. Scotch Bonnet chiles are very hot, so use serrano or jalapeno if you like a milder taste. Also use only UNSWEETENED coconut milk, found in Asian sections of the grocery store. WARNING: Use latex gloves to seed chiles, since seeds contain volatile oils, which can get on fingers, and then in eyes or on lips and burn like H***! :)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups onions, chopped
1 1/2 cups celery, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced (I use 6, actually)
1 1/2 lbs yukon gold potatoes, diced
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons pepper
1/4 cup flour
2 cups clam juice
2 cups skim milk
1 tablespoon anise, finely ground
1 1/2 teaspoons thyme
1 1/2 lbs sea scallops, cut in 1-inch pieces
8 ounces shrimp, tail off and deveined
1 cup half-and-half (fat free works great)

Steps:

  • Saute onion and celery in skillet or dutch oven coated with cooking spray for about 5 minutes (or until tender).
  • Add minced garlic and saute another minute.
  • Add diced potato, 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 3/4 teaspoons pepper; cook another 2 minutes. Sprinkle flour over potato mixture and cook another minute or two.
  • Add clam juice and skim milk; bring just to a boil, stirring constantly, and then reduce heat immediately. Simmer for about 20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.

  • Add half-and-half and cook a few more minutes, until heated thoroughly.

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 lb uncooked medium shrimp
1 lb large sea scallops
1/2 scotch bonnet pepper, seeded and minced
4 shallots, peeled and minced
2 clove garlic, peeled and minced
3 green onions, minced
1-inch piece fresh gingerroot, peeled and minced
1 small red bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 small green bell pepper, seeded and diced
3 Tbsp butter
2 tsp curry powder
6 c fish stock (or bottled clam juice)
2 c coconut milk, unsweetened
salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 c cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Peel and devein the shrimp and cut into 1 inch pieces.
  • 2. Cut large scallops in quarters, medium sized ones in half, so that all are the same size. NOTE: Bay scallops (the small ones) may be used if sea scallops not available. No need to cut, since they are usually about the same size.
  • 3. Melt the butter in a large saucepan. Cook chile, shallots, garlic, scallions, ginger and bell peppers over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, or until soft but not browned.
  • 4. Add the curry powder and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

  • 7. Ladle the chowder into bowls and garnish each with chopped cilantro.

Tips:

  • Use fresh seafood. Fresh scallops and shrimp will give your chowder the best flavor.
  • Don't overcook the seafood. Seafood cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it or it will become tough.
  • Use a good quality fish stock. The fish stock is the base of your chowder, so make sure it's a good one. You can use a store-bought fish stock or make your own.
  • Add vegetables to your chowder. Vegetables like celery, carrots, and onions add flavor and texture to the chowder.
  • Season your chowder to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of lemon juice or white wine for a little extra flavor.
  • Serve your chowder with a side of crusty bread or crackers. This will help to soak up the delicious broth.

Conclusion:

Scallop and shrimp chowder is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that's perfect for a cold winter day. It's also a great way to use up leftover seafood. So next time you have some extra scallops or shrimp, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
