1 cupLeek; thinly sliced
3 clovesGarlic; minced
1 cupWhite wine
1 14 oz canChicken broth
3/4 poundShrimp; peeled, deveined
3/4 poundScallops; large, cut in half

1 1/2 cupsTomato; chopped

1 teaspoonLemon zest
1/2 teaspoonSalt
1/2 teaspoonBlack pepper
1/4 teaspoonCayenne pepper

Soup- Spring Seafood Stew Preparation

Heat oil in a large Dutch oven coated with cooking spray over medium heat. Add leek and garlic; cook 4 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Add wine and broth; bring to a simmer. Stir in shrimp and scallops; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 3 minutes or until shrimp and scallops are done.

Remove shrimp and scallops from pan with a slotted spoon; keep warm. Bring broth mixture to a boil; cook 4 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Add butter, stirring constantly with a whisk. Stir in chopped tomato and remaining ingredients.

Divide shrimp and scallops evenly among 4 soup bowls; spoon 3/4 cup broth mixture into each bowl.

Poaching is an excellent way to cook seafood, since the cooking liquid makes a flavorful base for sauce. This recipe features a French technique called monter au beurre (to mount with butter), whereby chilled butter is whisked into the cooking liquid at the last minute to ensure a satiny sauce.

This was delicious but expensive to make. The shrimp and scallops cost $32.00.

Wonderful! It's light and fresh. (I substituted shallots for the leeks.)

Excellent. Easy to make and I added a little extra fresh tarragon for more perfume.
