Otter Chowder by Grizzled Adams

1Cup chopped onion

1/2 cup chopped green pepper

1/2 cup chopped celery

3or4 garlic cloves chopped

put a couppla glugs of olive oil in a heavy soup pot add 1st 4 ingredients fry till onions are translucent

1/2 lb mild whitefish

1 qt lowfat/low salt chicken broth

add fish to onion mix, when half done add chicken broth then add

1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika

1 teaspoon Mrs Dash Garlic and Herbs

1 teaspoon Old Bay

1 4oz can chopped green chilies

1 small can tomato paste

1 14 oz can whole tomatoes and juice

add 2 potatoes cut into 1/2 inch cubes and bring to a boil, then simmer for 45 min

next you will need;

1/2 lb "seafood mix"(raw octopus,raw cuttlefish,raw squid,raw shrimp and cooked clams and mussels)

1/2 lb salmon cut into large chunks

4 oz bay scallops

4oz backfin crab meat

4oz oysters

olive oil

white wine

garlic chopped

juice from one lemon

add olive oil to fry pan, when it is hot add garlic after about a minute of pushing the garlic around put in the "Seafood mix" turn the heat down, what you want to do is heat up the seafood mix in a scampi sauce, so add the lemon and wine and let it cook down keep stirring.

when the potatoes are about done, add the scampi, and the salmon chunks and simmer till the salmon is almost done. Then add the crabmeat and about 2 minutes before you serve add the oysters.

Serve with a salad and garlic bread.

Now I thought this tasted pretty damn good, and Leviticus would have tasted it, his book would have been half as long.
