Something New and DELICIOUS from Leftovers

Soooo, this is obviously a little late but I had to get in a couple posts this evening, because honestly, I am becoming QUITE the cook.

Seafood Stew started out as just that, but turned into an AWESOME seafood sauce over pasta with the water from Valentine's dinner  (lobster clambake) and the remaining clams.

olive oil
1 medium chopped onion
2 large garlic cloves
2/3 cup chopped parsley
1 large chopped tomato
1 6oz can of tomato paste
3 cups of the remaining water from the clambake (can be substituted with clam stock)
1 cup of white wine
1 lb tilapia
oregano
chili pepper flakes
thyme
pepper

Saute the garlic and onion in the olive oil (enough to cover the bottom, plus an extra splash).  Add parsley.  Add the tomato and tomato paste and let the tomatoes cook down some. Chop the fish into 1 inch cubes.  Add the white wine, the clambake water and the fish.  Lastly, add a dash of chili pepper and then oregano, thyme and pepper to taste.  Cook until fish is cooked through.  I found that it tastes better cooking longer, like a typical sauce. 

My work station!

Nick seemed surprised and how good this was!  The original recipe I used was a little different and called for a more expensive fish but why since its going into sauce/stew, ya know?

Oh yea, definitely serve sprinkled with parmasan cheese!!
