INGREDIENTS

1/4 c Olive oil
1 c Sliced leeks; white part only
2 Serrano chiles; seeded and diced, up to 3
8 Garlic cloves; minced
2 tb Achiote
4 c Chicken stock
3 md Zucchini; diced
3 c Tomato concasse; (recipe follows)
Kosher salt
Black pepper in a mill
8 oz Small dried pasta; such as tripolini, farfalline or small shells
1 c Cilantro sauce; (recipe follows)
1 lb Medium shrimp; peeled and deveined
1 lb Fish fillets; such as snapper, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 lb Fresh mussels or 2 pounds manila clams or cockles in the shell; scrubbed
1 Lime; cut into wedges

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat the olive oil in a large heavy pot over medium heat. Add the leeks and
serranos, using 3 serranos for more heat, and saute them until they are
soft and fragrant, about 15 minutes. Add the garlic, and saute for 2
minutes more. Break up the achiote with your fingers, and place it in a
small bowl. Stir in enough stock to make a paste. Add the achiote paste and
the rest of the stock to the leek mixture. Add the zucchini and tomato
concasse, and simmer for 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
While the vegetables are cooking, cook the pasta separately until it is
just barely done. Drain and rinse the pasta, toss it with 2 tablespoons of
the cilantro sauce, and set it aside.
Add the seafood to the vegetables, cover the pot, and simmer for 5 minutes.
Remove the pot from the heat. Divide the pasta among heated soup bowls and
then ladle the stew over it, being sure that each serving gets each type of
seafood. Top each portion with a spoonful of cilantro sauce. Serve
immediately, with a lime wedge and with the remaining cilantro sauce on the
side.
Yield: 4 to 6 servings
