Ingredients

Servings:2
  • 2 pounds Dungeness crab, cleaned and cracked
  • 1 pound Large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 pound Clams or mussels, scrubbed
  • 1/4 cup Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 large Yellow onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 1/2 cups Dry white wine (like Sauvignon Blanc)
  • 28 ounces Crushed tomatoes
  • 3 cups Fish stock or clam juice
  • 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon Red pepper flakes(optional)
  • 1/4 cup Fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large heavy pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the onion until translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, cooking for another 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.

  3. 3

    Pour in the white wine and bring to a boil; let it reduce by half to concentrate the flavor.

  4. 4

    Stir in the crushed tomatoes, fish stock, and dried oregano. Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes.

  5. 5

    Taste the broth and season with salt and pepper. Add the clams or mussels first, cover the pot, and cook for 3 minutes.

  6. 6

    Add the cracked Dungeness crab and shrimp to the pot, gently submerging them in the liquid.

  7. 7

    Cover and simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes until the shrimp are pink and the clams have fully opened.

  8. 8

    Discard any shellfish that did not open, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately with toasted sourdough bread.
