It was very easy-it was done in 45 minutes, and it turned out to be the best oyster stew I'd ever made. Ingredients:
3 medium leeks, chopped (white portion only) |
1/4 cup butter, cubed |
2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced |
2 cups hot water |
3 teaspoons chicken bouillon granules |
2 cups milk |
2 cups half-and-half cream |
4 (16 ounce) cans oysters, drained, 64 ounces total |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
salt and pepper, to taste |
minced fresh parsley, for garnish |
Directions:
1. In a Dutch oven, saute leeks in butter for 10 minutes or until tender. Add the potatoes, water and bouillon; cover and simmer 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Cool.
2. Transfer to a blender. Cover and process until blended. Return to the pan; stir in the milk, cream, oysters, cayenne, salt and pepper. Cook on low until heated through (do not boil). Garnish with parsley. Yield: 12 servings.
