INSTRUCTIONS
* Note: See the .Pickled Red Onions. recipe which is included in this
collection.
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over moderate heat. Saute the onions
with the salt until caramelized, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and
achiote paste and cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon
to avoid scorching. Add the tomato paste and pour in the fish stock or clam
juice and boil 5 minutes longer. Stir in the pepper and vinegar and remove
from the heat. Transfer the sauce to a blender and puree. Pass through a
strainer. The sauce keeps up to 4 days. To finish, pour the sauce into a
large skillet. Bring to a boil over high heat. Stir in the scallops or
shrimp, reduce the heat to medium and cook 3 to 5 minutes. Serve over a bed
of white rice and garnish with the Pickled Red Onions or capers. This
recipe yields 4 to 6 servings.
