Serves/Makes: 8 | Ready In: > 5 hrs
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided (approx.)
3 ounces sweet Italian sausage, casings removed and meat crumbled
2 onions, diced
4 stalks celery, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
1/2 teaspoon cracked black peppercorns
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
3 cups lower-salt chicken broth
1 can (14 ounce size) diced tomatoes, including juice
8 boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-size pieces
8 ounces medium shrimp, cooked, peeled and deveined
1 can (5 ounce size) clams, drained
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1/2 cup finely chopped parsley leaves
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 pinch cayenne pepper
8 ounces sea scallops, halved
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon file powder, optional
hot pepper sauce
Directions:
In a skillet, heat half of the oil over medium heat. Add sausage and cook, stirring, until no longer pink inside, about 4 minutes. Transfer to slow cooker stoneware.
Add remaining oil to pan, if necessary. Add onions and celery and cook, stirring, until celery is tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, thyme, oregano and peppercorns and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
Stir in tomato paste. Add flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add broth and tomatoes with juice and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Transfer to slow cooker stoneware.
Add chicken and stir well. Cover and cook on Low for 6 hours or on High for 3 hours, until juices run clear. Add shrimp, clams, green and red peppers and parsley and stir well. Cover and cook on High for 30 minutes, until peppers are tender and shrimp are heated through.
Meanwhile, combine chili powder and cayenne in a plastic bag. Add scallops and toss until coated with mixture.
In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add scallops and cook, stirring, just until they become opaque, about 4 minutes. Add to slow cooker stoneware and stir well. Add file powder, if using, and stir well. Serve immediately. Pass the hot pepper sauce at the table.
