Ingredients:
  • 9g Tea&Grill BBQ green tea seasoning
  • 200g fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 200g fresh fish fillets (such as cod or halibut), cut into chunks
  • 200g fresh clams, scrubbed and rinsed
  • 200g fresh mussels, scrubbed and debearded
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 1/4 cup white wine (optional, substitute with chicken broth if needed)
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil, for garnish
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced red chili peppers, for garnish (optional)
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions, for garnish
Instructions:
Prepare the Seafood:
  • Rinse the shrimp, fish fillets, clams, and mussels under cold water to remove any impurities. Pat the seafood dry with paper towels.
Cook the Aromatics:
  • In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until it is translucent and slightly golden, about 5-7 minutes. Add the grated ginger and sauté for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Simmer the Chowder Base:
  • Add the white wine (or chicken broth) to the pot. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly. Add the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Cook the Seafood:
  • Add the clams and mussels to the pot. Cover and cook over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes, or until the shells open. Discard any clams or mussels that do not open.
  • Add the shrimp and fish fillets to the pot. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and the fish is cooked through.
Prepare the Creamy Sauce:
  • In a small bowl, mix the heavy cream with 5g of the Tea&Grill BBQ green tea seasoning. Stir well to combine. Add this mixture to the pot with the seafood and stir gently to combine. Let the chowder simmer for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Finish and Serve:
  • Season the chowder with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir in the chopped parsley.
  • Ladle the seafood chowder into bowls. Garnish with chopped fresh basil, thinly sliced red chili peppers (if using), and thinly sliced green onions.
  • Serve immediately, enjoying the tender, flavorful seafood in a rich, creamy broth with the unique flavor of green tea seasoning.
Enjoy your delicious Seafood Chowder!
