Chinese cioppino
Ingredients
- 1 pound mixed seafood (such as fish fillets, shrimp, clams, squid)
- 1 onion chopped
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 red bell pepper diced
- 1 cup diced tomatoes canned or fresh
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 cups seafood broth or vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, and red bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are softened and fragrant.
- Add the tomato paste and diced tomatoes to the pot. Stir well to combine.
- Pour in the seafood or vegetable broth. Add the Chinese five-spice powder, soy sauce, sugar, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine all the flavors.
- Bring the broth to a simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Add the seafood to the pot. If using fish fillets, cut them into bite-sized pieces. Stir gently to coat the seafood with the broth.
- Cover the pot and cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through and the clams have opened. Discard any clams that remain closed.
- Taste the broth and adjust the seasoning if needed.
- Serve the Chinese cioppino in bowls, garnished with fresh cilantro or parsley. Serve with crusty bread or steamed rice.
