CRAWFISH AND SHRIMP POT WITH SPICED SWEET POTATOES



Crawfish and Shrimp Pot With Spiced Sweet Potatoes image

Plentiful throughout the Gulf Coast, crawfish and shrimp are Choctaw staples and traditional seasonings like filé, the spice ground from dried sassafras bark, and spicy chiles are a perfect accompaniment. Here, the crustaceans rest on a bed of spicy sweet potatoes, in a dish that calls back to traditional feasts and community gatherings. The sassafras adds a grassy, slightly sour note, and the berries bring more color and tang. You can vary the shellfish depending on the season and your locale in this festive dish, which is easily doubled to serve a crowd.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon red-pepper flakes, plus more as needed
1 tablespoon coarse sea salt, plus more as needed
2 pounds crawfish
1 pound head-on jumbo shrimp
2 tablespoons sunflower oil
1 cup chopped yellow onion
1 small orange or purple sweet potato, unpeeled, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 tablespoons New Mexico red chile powder or chipotle chile powder
1 tablespoon filé powder
1/2 cup fresh or thawed frozen blackberries
1/2 packed cup sliced dandelion greens (or other dark greens such as arugula or spinach), plus whole leaves reserved for garnish

Steps:

  • Add the red-pepper flakes, salt and 3 quarts water to a large pot. Bring to a boil over high heat. Add the crawfish and shrimp, return to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer until the shellfish is deep red, about 10 minutes, skimming off any foam that rises to the surface. Turn off the heat, cover and let stand for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the vegetables: In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high. Add the onion and sauté until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the sweet potato, chile powder, filé powder and 2 cups of the shellfish cooking water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the sweet potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the blackberries and sliced greens and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Using the back of a fork or the tip of a wooden spoon, mash the blackberries gently and season the mixture to taste with coarse sea salt and red-pepper flakes.
  • Spoon the vegetables onto individual plates or a large platter. Strain the crawfish and shrimp mixture, then arrange the cooked shellfish on top of the vegetables. Garnish with the reserved leaves.

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 pound parsnips, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
12 ounces red-skinned sweet potatoes (yams; about 2 small), peeled, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 red onion, sliced (about 1 1/2 cups)
5 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano (preferably Mexican)
1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
1 large garlic clove, peeled
1 small jalapeño chile, halved, seeded
2 cups coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
1 cup chopped green onions (about 6)
1 4-ounce can diced green chiles (preferably fire-roasted), drained
2 cups purchased salsa verde or mild tomatillo salsa
1/2 cup crema mexicana, crème fraîche, or sour cream, divided
8 ounces cooked peeled deveined shrimp, coarsely chopped
12 5 1/2- to 6-inch-diameter corn tortillas
8 ounces crumbled queso fresco or feta cheese (about 2 cups)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Line rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Toast cumin seeds in small skillet over medium heat until beginning to brown, about 2 minutes. Cool. Transfer to spice mill; process until finely ground. Combine parsnips, sweet potatoes, and red onion in large bowl. Add ground cumin, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, chili powder, oregano, and 1 teaspoon coarse salt; toss to coat. Transfer to prepared baking sheet. Roast vegetables until soft and browned in spots, turning occasionally, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool. DO AHEAD: Can be prepared 4 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. With machine running, add garlic and jalapeño through feed tube of processor and process until finely chopped. Add cilantro, green onions, and drained green chiles. Using on/off turns, process until coarse puree forms. Add salsa; process to blend. Transfer salsa mixture to large deep skillet. Add 1/4 cup crema and stir over medium-low heat just until warm (do not allow to boil). Remove from heat. Season salsa mixture to taste with salt and pepper. Cover and keep warm.
  • Measure 1 cup roasted vegetables; set aside. Transfer remaining vegetables to processor. Using on/off turns, process until coarsely chopped. Transfer to large bowl. Add shrimp and toss to incorporate evenly. Season filling to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Heat remaining 3 tablespoons oil in medium skillet over medium-high heat. Working with 1 tortilla at a time, cook until just softened, about 15 seconds per side (do not allow to brown). Transfer tortillas to paper towels to drain.
  • Spread 1/2 cup salsa mixture over bottom of 15 x 10 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Place 1 tortilla on work surface; sprinkle generous 2 teaspoons crumbled cheese down center. Top with generous 1/4 cup roasted vegetable filling, arranging down center atop cheese. Roll up tortilla and place, seam side down, in prepared dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas, cheese, and filling. Scatter reserved 1 cup roasted vegetables over enchiladas. Spoon remaining salsa mixture over. Sprinkle with any remaining cheese; drizzle with remaining 1/4 cup crema (whisking if necessary to loosen enough to drizzle). Bake enchiladas until heated through, about 20 minutes.

CHILE JAM CHICKEN WITH CARAMELIZED SWEET POTATOES AND PEACHES



Chile Jam Chicken With Caramelized Sweet Potatoes and Peaches image

Add sweetness and spice to a simple chicken dinner with a few spoonfuls of chile jam.

Provided by Daphne Oz

Categories     HarperCollins     Dinner     Summer     Chicken     Peach     Sweet Potato/Yam     Chile Pepper     Onion

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

For the Caramelized Sweet Potatoes and Peaches:
1 tablespoon organic coconut oil, melted
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup, room temperature (if it is cold, the coconut oil will solidify on contact)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Iodized salt
1 medium sweet potato, scrubbed and cut into 1-inch chunks
2 medium peaches, pitted and sliced into 4 wedges each
1 medium sweet onion, peeled and quartered
For the chicken:
4 skinless, bone-in chicken thighs
Sea salt
Fresh-cracked black pepper
4 tablespoons chile jam (some of my favorites: Hell Fire Pepper Jelly from Jenkins Jellies or INNA Jam's Plenty Spicy Jalapeño for heat seekers)
Juice of 1/2 lemon

Steps:

  • To make the Caramelized Sweet Potatoes and Peaches:
  • Preheat the oven to 450°F.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the coconut oil, syrup, cinnamon, and salt. Put the potato and peaches in 2 separate bowls. Pour three quarters of the syrup mixture over the sweet potato and one-quarter over the peaches and toss. Spread the potato in an even layer in a large baking dish and roast for 10 minutes. Toss the potato and roast for 5 minutes more. Add the onion and roast for 15 minutes. Toss the potato and onion, add the peaches in an even layer, and roast 10 minutes, or until the potato and onion are fork tender and the peaches have caramelized.
  • To make the chicken:
  • Pat the chicken dry and season both sides liberally with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and arrange the chicken thighs inside (cast iron works really well to get a nice crispy crust). Brown the chicken on one side, giving the chicken time to unstick itself from the pan surface and form a good, crispy coating, about 10 minutes (you can give it some help with your tongs or spatula if needed). Flip the chicken thighs and brown for 6 to 10 minutes, or until you can insert a knife to the bone and no red liquid emerges.
  • Lower heat to medium-low and spoon a quarter of the chile jam over each thigh. Melt the jam over the chicken and on all sides, using tongs to flip and swirl the thighs in the pan. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes to allow the jam to form a glaze. Remove the thighs to a serving plate and spoon the glaze on top. Scrape up any bits sticking to the bottom of the pan-these will be the crispiest and the first to go!
  • Just before serving, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the chicken to brighten its flavors and heighten the sweetness and spice. Serve with Caramelized Sweet Potatoes and Peaches.
