Image: Feastingathome



































Since summer is upon us this is a really great recipe to celebrate the sunshine. I made this last night and it was a real hit at home with future husband. It is a very easy, super quick recipe and well worth it! Invite a few friends over and enjoy with a glass of wine...

Ingredients
  • chorizo
  • 1 tablespoon fennel
  • 1 red onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce
  • 1 cup peas
  • seafood mix
  • 1 tin chopped peeled tomatoes
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • flat leaf parsley to garnish
  • salt and pepper
  • olive oil

In a large saucepan, brown the chorizo in a little olive oil with the onions. Once its browned, set aside. Pour off the fat, wipe out the saucepan with a paper towel. Add the fennel and tomato paste as well as the stock, add all of the seafood mix and leave to simmer.

Add white wine, chopped tomatoes, fish sauce and peas and turn heat down to medium high, stirring until it mostly evaporates, salt and pepper to taste. 


Finish with a squeeze of a half a lemon and sprinkle generously with flat leaf parsley. I served it with mash but I think something like polenta will also work very well, maybe even large chunks of ciabatta.

Enjoy!
