- How to Cook Different Foods In The Steam Oven
Once you set the oven in the steam mode you can add in multiple containers of food at one time, all you have to do is determine the timing for each type of food and the order in which you want to cook those foods. How to Cook Different Foods In The Steam Oven Cooking food in steam is not a new concept neither is cooking multiple foods in steam at one time; however, the advantages of cooking with the technology in the steam oven definitely makes food preparation easier. Once you set the oven in the steam mode you can add in multiple containers of food at one time, all you have to do is determine the timing for each type of food and the order in which you want to cook those foods. Planning is Key When Cooking Multiple Foods at one Time Cooking Multiple Dishes In A Steam Oven. It’s easier than ever these days to keep track of the timing when cooking multiple dishes at one time. In addition to the oven timers we have devices such as Alexa, our phones, digital timers and the old fashioned wind up timers. If your oven is connected to the manufacturer's app you will also get an alert when the timing has elapsed. In other words, planning the timing for cooking multiple dishes is easy. Prepare Meals in Advance at the same Time as Cooking Dinner Steaming multiple foods at one time can be helpful when preparing a meal, but also when you are preparing several meals in advance. Say for example you wanted to make mashed potatoes as a topping for Shepherds Pie that you plan to serve on another day, and also steam some bone in chicken for sandwiches as well as steam some rice and vegetables for dinner, well all those foods can be cooked in the Steam mode at the same time. It might sound ambitious, but really it’s amazingly easy. Here is the timing for this scenario: Steamed (2) bone-in chicken legs, prep time, 5 minutes, cooking time 40 minutes. Yield approximately 3 cups cooked chicken + 2 cups chicken stock. Cook in a solid pan with 1 cup of water and the desired aromatics. Set the chicken aside to cool before shredding. Steaming Chicken for Salad. Potatoes (4 large) for mashed potatoes, prep time, 5 minutes, cooking time 20 minutes. Yield 4 - 6 servings. Cook in the solid pan, add ½ cup of water and salt. Remove when potatoes are very tender and mash with butter etc. Rice (1 cup) cooking time 15 - 30 minutes depending on the type of rice. Yield 2 - 3 servings. Cook in the solid pan with 1 ¾ cups of water and salt. Allow to stand for 5 minutes then fluff with a fork. Steamed vegetables, green beans, broccoli, asparagus, thinly sliced carrots: 6 - 8 minutes depending on your preference. In this scenario the base for the Shepherd's Pie could be prepared while the potatoes are steaming, once the mashed potatoes are spread over the filling you would have a dish ready for another meal. Once cooled, the chicken can be shredded and stored ready to add to sandwiches or salads and you will have some simple side dishes ready to serve with dinner. Planning to cook this way is a very efficient way of keeping your refrigerator stocked with healthy nourishing food, so there is always something good to eat. Remember that Shepherds Pie you made in advance well that will heat beautifully in the Steam oven without needing to be covered because, it won't dry out when baked in the combination Convection/Steam mode. With No Cooktop to Clean, Clean-Up is Easy Since all the steam oven cooking containers can be washed in the dishwasher, clean-up is much easier and you have managed to cook a lot of food with little stress. Don't Go Without Breakfast, Cook it in the Steam Oven Using the steam oven to cook multiple foods at breakfast time also makes it easier to ensure everyone gets a healthy breakfast. Oatmeal can be cooked directly in the bowl water in the Steam mode. The timing is approximately 6 minutes, but if the bowl stays in the oven for 10 minutes nothing bad will happen. Eggs can also be poached in the oven at the same time, for large cold eggs between 5-6 minutes works best. Although at higher altitudes it can take up to 8 minutes. Poached Eggs In A Steam Oven. Keep the Steam Oven Clean and Dry For ovens with a tank it is recommended to empty the tank after each use, however, if you use the oven to cook breakfast and plan to use it again that evening the tank can be emptied after the last meal of the day is cooked. Just be sure to dry the oven out to maintain a hygienic environment. Think Beyond Cooking One Item at a Time and Let the Oven Work for You Steam ovens are truly remarkable tools, and I encourage you to think beyond just using the oven to prepare one food at a time. Always ask yourself, is there something else I can cook at the same time to get a head start on another meal or to make it easier to prepare several dishes at one time. With a little planning you will get great results every time when cooking with your steam oven. Larissa Your Convection (and Steam) Enthusiast BACK TO LEARN PAGE RESCUED BY MY CONVECTION OVEN!

- How to Cook Lobster Tail in the Steam Oven
How to cook a Lobster tails depends on what type of oven you have. They can be steam roasted, steamed or broiled with steam if your oven has that option. Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING How to Cook Lobster Tail in the Steam Oven Steaming, Steam Roasting Delicious steamed lobster prepared to perfection in a steam oven, served with a fresh salad and crusty bread. One of the best aspects of a Convection Steam oven is that it offers a variety of cooking options, so you are never limited to cooking a dish in only one way. Lobster tails are a great example, they can be steam roasted, steamed or broiled with steam if your oven has that option. To enjoy the sweet delicate flavor of the lobster meat in a salad or lobster roll, steaming will yield the best results. Coating the lobster meat with some garlic and spice infused butter and either roasting or braising it will on the other hand yield a much more robust flavor. If you are steaming the lobster tails allow them to cool before cutting the shell away. However, for the higher heat preparations, cutting the shell away and exposing the meat is definitely the bet option. To achieve the best flavor and texture watch the cooking time carefully, so they don’t overcook. INGREDIENTS 3 Lobster tails PREPARATION Steamed Lobster Tails Preheat the oven in the Steam Mode 212°F. Place the lobster tails in the solid stainless pan or an oven proof container. Add ½ a cup of water and a tablespoon of white wine or dry vermouth and some lemon slices. Slide the pan into the oven and set the timer for 8 -10 minutes. (smaller tails will cook in 8 minutes). When the timer has elapsed remove the pan from the oven and remove the lobster tails from the hot cooking liquid so they can cool down. When cooled, cut down each side of the belly shell and peel it away. You should now be able to easily remove the lobster meat. Steam Roasted Lobster Tails Preheat the oven in the Combination Convection Steam Mode 350°F. Cut down the center of the shell in a straight line and pull the shell apart on each side to release the meat. Carefully pull the meat from the shell, push the sides of the shell back together and drape the meat over the shell. Brush the meat with garlic infused melted butter and the seasoning of your choice. Place on a small rimmed baking sheet and slide into the oven. Set the timer for 8 minutes for smaller tails and 10 minutes for larger tails. Steam Broiled Lobster Tails Prepare the lobster tails as noted above and place on a small rimmed baking sheet. You will be placing the the baking sheet on the second rack position from the top. The tails will be close to the broil element but not touching it and set the oven to 450°F in the Steam Broil Mode. Slide the prepared tails into the oven and cook for 6 - 8 minutes.

- Grilled Skirt Steak
Grilled Skirt Steak using the Convection Broil mode of your electric oven is one of the best ways to get a great sear while preserving the meat's natural juices. YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Grilled Skirt Steak Convection Broil Sliced beef grilled to perfection with Convection Broil, served with fresh greens and a vibrant corn salad. Grilling in an electric oven using the Convection Broil mode is one of the best ways to get a great sear while preserving the meat's natural juices. Broiling a corn salsa at the same time is an easy way to get a flavor-packed meal on the table with minimum fuss. Nonetheless, when using such high heat it is important to be well organized and have everything at the ready. Remember these important tips: Self-cleaning ovens have a catalyst that absorbs smoke and particulate matter at high temperatures but it is advisable to still run the overhead ventilation to keep the kitchen air clean. Organize the oven racks before you heat the oven, follow the manufacturer's recommendations for the pre-heat time and always broil with the door closed. Not closing the door can damage the electronics. The same cooking instructions can be used for gas ovens that use an Infra-Red broiler, which also excels at retaining moisture while searing. I used a marinated skirt steak from Trader Joe's and it was good but I feel the results with fresh skirt steak that has had a dry rub are even more flavorful. INGREDIENTS For the steak 1lb fresh or marinated skirt steak If using fresh steak, give it a dry rub with your favorite BBQ seasoning and drizzle it with a little vegetable oil. If using marinated steak, blot the steak to remove excess liquid and drizzle with a little vegetable oil. For the broiled corn salsa 2 cups corn kernels (defrosted if using frozen corn) 1 jalapeno pepper, coarsely chopped ½ small sweet onion or 1 shallot, coarsely chopped ½ tsp ground cumin, (optional) 2 cloves garlic, minced ½ cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped 1 lime, juiced PREPARATION Turn on your overhead ventilation or downdraft on medium speed to set the airflow in the kitchen. Electric Convection ovens - heat the oven in the Convection Broil Mode Hi or 500 degrees. Gas Ovens - heat the oven in the Broil Mode. Place the meat on a 2-piece oven broil pan. Place in the oven close to the top heating with at least a 3” clearance. Close the door and set the timer for 6 minutes. If the meat is nicely seared then turn it otherwise cook for a few minutes longer. Cook for a few minutes less on the 2nd side and remove the meat from the hot pan to rest when it comes out of the oven. Combine the corn with the jalapeno and onion and toss with enough vegetable oil to coat. Spread onto a rimmed baking sheet and broil in the Convection Broil mode Hi or 475 degrees until the corn begins to char. Remove from the oven and scrape into a bowl, cool for a few minutes then stir in the garlic, cilantro, and lime juice. Season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper. Slice the meat into thin slices against the grain and serve with the broiled salsa. Makes 2 - 3 servings PRINT OUR RECIPE Grilled Skirt Steak .pdf Download PDF • 105KB WANT TO LEARN MORE?

- How to Cook Salmon at a Low Temperature in Convection
When cooking a salmon at a Low Temperature, the fish will be moist and flavorful. We first sear the fish and to the oven we go! YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 How to Cook Salmon at a Low Temperature in Convection Convection Mode (True Convection) Convection-roasted Atlantic salmon with sautéed greens and roasted potatoes, elegantly presented. Cooking foods at low temperatures, especially delicate fish, helps keep the fish really moist and flavorful. For best results, we first sear the fish on one side, gently turn it over then place the pan in the Combi-steam or Convection oven to finish cooking. This technique works well with any meaty fish, just take care not to hurry the searing step by turning the fish too soon, otherwise, it will stick to the pan. For best results in a Convection oven use the Convection mode 180 - 200 degrees. If you have a Combi-steam oven, and it doesn’t have a dedicated Low-Temperature mode then just use Combi-steam 180 - 200 degrees. INGREDIENTS 2 fillets of meaty fish such as salmon, halibut, sea bass or wild cod 1 tbsp unsalted butter 1 tbsp olive oil ½ lemon, juice only PREPARATION Pat the fillets dry with a paper towel and season with your preferred seasoning and a sprinkle of Kosher salt and freshly cracked pepper. Heat the Combi-steam oven in the Low-Temperature or Combi-steam Mode 180 - 200 degrees. Or heat your Convection oven in the Convection mode to 180 - 200 degrees. Heat an ovenproof skillet over moderate heat and when hot add the butter and oil. Carefully lay the fish into the pan and let it cook undisturbed for a few minutes. Gently lift one corner and if the fish releases easily then carefully turn each piece. Now place the pan in the heated oven and cook for 6 - 8 minutes. Center cuts of very meaty fish may take up to 15 minutes to cook through. Don’t hurry the process the results are worth waiting for. Squeeze the lemon juice over the fish and baste with the pan juices before serving. Serves 2 Low Temperature Roast Salmon .pdf Download PDF • 100KB WANT TO LEARN MORE?

If you are looking for a chicken dish that is bursting with great flavors then you will enjoy this variation on the popular roast chicken panzanella salad. While the spatchcock chicken, carrots and croutons cook together in convection, the salad ingredients and dressing can be prepared. There are several steps to create this recipe, first is to prepare the marinade for the chicken, then remove the backbone of the chicken and marinate it for several hours or overnight. Next, prepare the carrots and croutons so they can be baked at the same time as the chicken. While these ingredients are cooking in your convection oven, the salad ingredients and the dressing can be prepared. The salad ingredients call for a wonderful combination of mint, cilantro and basil that combined with the crisp romaine and cucumber compliment the flavors of the marinade perfectly. Once the salad is assembled and dressed add the croutons and top with the warm sliced chicken so that the juices from the chicken seep into the croutons. Your efforts will be well rewarded.

Place the flattened chicken on a rimmed baking sheet and cook for 25 minutes. After 25 minutes, add the carrots to the same pan or spread onto another rimmed baking sheet and cook the carrots and chicken for another 20 minutes. Toss the bread chunks with the melted butter, garlic powder and Old Bay seasoning and spread onto a rimmed baking sheet. Bake in the oven on a rimmed baking sheet for 12 - 15 minutes until golden while the chicken is roasting. Meanwhile, combine the romaine lettuce, cucumber, onion, radish, mint, basil and cilantro in a large bowl and enough of the dressing to evenly coat the salad and toss to combine. Scatter the croutons over the salad and toss lightly to combine.

- Italian Cheese Bread with Mozzarella - Just like Pizza!
Convection Bake is the ideal mode when baking Italian Cheese Bread with Mozzarella. You will have a light crisp perfectly baked crust YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Italian Cheese Bread with Mozzarella - Just like Pizza! Convection Bake Mode Golden cheese bread sliced and served fresh from the convection oven. Convection Bake is the ideal mode to choose when baking bread and pizza in your Convection oven. The heating element in the bottom of the oven directs powerful heat to the base of the crust while the heated air circulating around the oven helps form a light crisp perfectly baked crust. Because this Convection Bake recipe uses Rapid Rise Yeast, the dough requires only 20 minutes for proofing before being rolled out and topped with a generous helping of cheese. Basically, in approximately 45 minutes you are able to enjoy delicious homemade cheesy bread which is almost instant happiness. While this dough is easy to make getting the water temperature just right is key to success. Testing the water temperature on the inside of your wrist before adding to the dry ingredients is recommended to avoid adding water that is either too hot or too cold. While this recipe shares the same ingredients as pizza the dough is much thicker and because it’s thicker it can handle a more generous amount of cheese. You can certainly add additional flavor accents just take care not to weigh the dough down. The bread can be baked on a baking stone or a metal pan placed on the 1st or second rack from the bottom of the oven. INGREDIENTS Bread Dough 2 ½ cups all-purpose or bread flour 1 tsp Kosher salt 1 tsp sugar 1 tbsp, rapid rise yeast 1 cup warm water 1 tbsp olive oil Topping 1 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese 3 tbs mayonnaise 1 tbsp chopped green onion Dash red chili flakes PREPARATION Combine the four, salt, sugar, and yeast in a medium-sized bowl. Combine the water and oil in a measuring cup and add to the flour mixture. Mix with a wooden spoon to form a soft dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface, and gather the dough together in a ball and knead a few times to create a smooth ball. Place the dough into a clean bowl add 1 tsp of olive oil and turn to coat with the oil. Cover with a kitchen towel or select the Proof mode in your oven and place uncovered in the oven to proof for 20 minutes. While the dough is proofing, combine the topping ingredients in a small bowl. Heat the oven in the Convection Bake Mode 450 degrees. If using a pizza stone place the stone in the oven during the preheating phase. Place the dough on a lightly floured surface, punch it down flatten it into a disc with the heel of your palm. Place the dough over the back of your hands and stretch it into a 12” circle. If using a pizza stone, place the dough on a lightly floured pizza peel. If using a baking pan, place the dough on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Spread the cheese mixture evenly over the dough and slide the bread into the oven. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.

- Perfectly Cooked Flank Steak with Tomatillo Salsa
Sliced flank steak on a platter topped with corn salsa, surrounded by lime slices, tomatillos, and cilantro. The mood is appetizing and inviting. YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Perfectly Cooked Flank Steak with Tomatillo Salsa Convection Bake or Convection Roast + Convection Broil Grilled steak adorned with a corn salsa, surrounded by slices of fresh lime and garnished with cilantro, makes for a vibrant and appetizing presentation. Cooking a lean cut of beef, such as flank steak, in a convection oven is the ideal method to ensure the meat remains tender and juicy. In this recipe, the flank steak is first cooked at a low temperature of 250°F (120 °C) for 30 minutes, then finished using the Broil mode set to 475°F (245 °C) or High. Cooking the meat at a low temperature minimizes moisture loss, ensuring a great texture and flavor, with the high-heat finish adding the perfect amount of sizzle. Prior to cooking, the meat is marinated with a dry rub of flavorful seasonings, brushed with a little oil, and served with the broiled tomatillo corn salsa. Extra salsa is delicious served over scrambled eggs wrapped in a tortilla. Since the tomatillo salsa is also broiled, you can cook it together with the steak during the high-heat finish. Alternatively, if you have a second oven, it can be prepared while the steak is cooking at a low temperature. Once the steak is cooked, plan to rest it for 5 - 8 minutes, then cut it in half and slice each half thinly across the grain. INGREDIENTS For the flank steak 1 flank steak 1.5-2lbs (680-900 g) 1 tsp dried oregano 1 tsp ground cumin ½ tsp garlic powder Salt and pepper Seasoned flank steak ready for the oven. For the tomatillo salsa 6 - 8 tomatillos, coarsely chopped 2 ears of yellow corn, shucked 1 jalapeno chili, seeded, coarsely chopped 3 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped 1 shallot, coarsely chopped 2 tbsp vegetable oil ½ cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped 1 tbsp fresh lime juice Tomatillo salsa ingredients. PREPARATION Combine the spices, salt, and pepper and rub into the flank steak to marinate for at least one hour or up to eight hours prior to cooking. Preheat the oven to 250°F (120 °C) in Convection Roast or Convection Bake mode. Be sure to arrange the oven racks first so that one rack is positioned high in the oven, close to the Broil element, to avoid having to move a hot rack for the final high-heat finish. Place the flank steak on a shallow, rimmed baking pan lined with foil, shiny side down. Spritz the steak with a little vegetable or olive oil and place it in the oven. Set the timer for 30 minutes. When the timer elapses, remove the steak and change the oven mode to Convection Broil, setting the temperature to 475°F (245 °C) or High. Allow the oven to heat for 5 minutes, then add the steak and cook for 6 - 8 minutes. (It isn’t necessary to turn the steak) Remove the pan from the oven and immediately place the steak on a cutting board or cool tray to rest for 5 - 8 minutes before slicing. To cook the tomatillo salsa, combine the tomatillos, corn, shallot, garlic, and jalapeno together with 1 tbsp of vegetable or olive oil. Spread the mixture onto a shallow, rimmed baking pan lined with foil, shiny side down. Heat the oven to Broil or Convection Broil mode at 475°F (250 °C) or High for 5 minutes. Place the tray in the oven and broil the vegetables until they begin to brown on the edges, about 6-8 minutes. Scrape the mixture into a bowl, stir in the chopped cilantro and lime juice, and add some sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.

These Lion's Head meatballs are quick to prepare and are packed with great flavor. Best of all, the meatballs and vegetables can be steamed at one time in the Combi-steam oven for an easy delicious steamed meal. Featuring a combination of ground pork, chopped shrimp, bacon, water chestnuts and fresh ginger these meatballs are easy to prepare and quick to cook. In this preparation chef Paul added Bok choy and shiitake mushrooms to the steaming broth for an easy one dish meal. Because this meal is prepared in the Steam mode rice can be steamed at the same time. When steaming rice in a steam oven it is not necessary to cover the cooking container, just add the rice and salt to cold water as cook as directed. However, when cooking rice in a steam oven for best results use 1 3/4 cups of water to 1 cup of rice. INGREDIENTS 1 lb. ground pork 1/4 cup Chinese rice wine or Sherry 1 tsp salt 1 tsp sugar 1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch 1 tbsp old fashioned oats 2 green onions, white parts only 1 inch piece ginger, peeled 6 water chestnuts 4 slices bacon, cut into big pieces ½ lb. uncooked, peeled shrimp 2 cups chicken stock 6-8 medium size Bok choy, cut in half or quarters 8 oz Shiitake mushrooms, stemmed and cut in half PREPARATION In a large bowl, combine the ground pork with the rice wine, salt, sugar cornstarch and oats. In a food processor with the chopping blade, chop the ginger and green onion into small pieces and add to the bowl with the pork. Add water chestnuts to the food processor and pulse or chop into small pieces and add to the bowl with the pork. Now process the bacon and shrimp in the food processor and chop into small pieces, then scrape in the bowl with the rest of the ingredients. Using your hands or a thick wooden spoon, beat the mixture vigorously, beating for about 2 minutes until it's well mixed. Dip your hands in water and divide the mixture into 8 equal portions, (or smaller if you prefer). Form the mixture into balls and place in the solid steam oven pan or a large oven-proof casserole dish. Add chicken stock to the pan and steam for 20 minutes, (15 if meatballs are smaller). Add the bok choy and mushrooms to the pan and cook for another 12-15 minutes. Serve in bowls with the stock.

- Seafood Stew with Lobster, Crab and Halibut (Cioppino)
In this Seafood Stew or Cioppino we begin by making the seafood stock then cooking the soup base . Prior to serving the seafood is cooked in the Convection or Convection Steam Oven. Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Seafood Stew with Lobster, Crab and Halibut (Cioppino) Steam-Roasting Quick and easy seafood stew cooked perfectly in a steam oven. All the flavor for this dish comes from the soup base, that's why making a flavorful stock is so important. Steaming or poaching the seafood in the Steam oven and adding it to the soup ensures all the seafood cooks evenly and doesn't get mashed up in the pan. The traditional method of making Cioppino, Seafood Stew, is fairly straightforward. First, you create a flavorful broth then add the seafood and simmer for a few minutes before serving, but key to good flavor is a good fish or seafood stock, something the Italian fishermen who created this recipe had. In this version we begin by making the seafood stock then cooking the soup base, but we cook some of the seafood in the Convection or Convection Steam Oven. Why? Well when we broil or roast the fish in the oven the results are more flavorful and it’s easier to handle. A good seafood stock will of course give the best result, and it does take a hour or more to cook but it can be made in advance. Purchase shrimp in the shell and use the shells for the stock. Adding in some lobster tail shells and the smaller pieces of the crab claws will yield a very good stock, and you can use the shrimp, crab and lobster in the soup. INGREDIENTS Shellfish Stock 6 - cups assorted shellfish shells, shrimp, lobster and crab 1 - medium yellow onion, chopped 1 - carrot, chopped into large rounds 1 - celery stalk, chopped into 2” pieces ½ - cup dry white wine 2 - Tbsps. tomato paste 2 - sprigs each thyme & Italian parsley 1 - bay leaf 10 - whole peppercorns. Cioppino 3 - tablespoons olive oil 1 - medium yellow onion, diced 2 - shallots, diced 1 - fennel bulb, fronds & core removed, thinly sliced 4 - cloves garlic, minced ½ - teaspoon dried red chili flakes 4 - tablespoons tomato paste 1 - 28oz can whole tomatoes 1 - cup white wine 5 - cups shellfish stock 1 - bay leaf 2 - lobster tails, shell removed, flesh cut into 1” chunks (use the shell for the stock) 1- lb. shell on uncooked large shrimp (use the shell for the stock) ½ - lb. small crab claws and shell (for the stock) ½ -lb. large crab claws for the soup ½ -lb. manilla clams 1 ½ - lbs. firm fleshed fish, such as halibut or rock cod, cut into 2” chunks ½ - teaspoon mixed Italian seasoning 1 - lemon zest only PREPARATION Place the shells in a large stock pot and add enough water to cover the shells by 1”. Heat the water over moderate heat and keep it cooking at a very gentle heat just barely simmering for at least an hour. You should only see some bubbles come to the surface. Avoid stirring the ingredients to keep the stock clear during this time but keep skimming and discarding the foam that rises to the surface. Cooking the shells slowly this way without stirring will yield a flavorful stock. Once the stock is no longer releasing foam, add the wine, onions, carrots, celery, tomato paste, herbs and peppercorns. Continue simmering but do not boil for another 30 minutes, skimming off any foam that rises. Strain the stock through a fine mesh strainer and discard all the shells, season the stock with salt to taste and you are ready to make Cioppino. Cioppino Preparation Heat a large pan over medium heat, add the oil and sauté the onion for a few minutes. Stir in the shallots and fennel and cook over moderate heat for about 10 minutes to soften the fennel. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and sauté for 2 minutes before adding in the tomato paste, tomatoes, wine, fish stock and bay leaf. Simmer for 30 minutes, breaking up the tomatoes as they soften. Heat the oven in the Convection Roast or Convection Steam Mode 375 degrees. Place the cubed fish, lobster tails and shrimp in a stainless mixing bowl, drizzle with some olive oil and season with the Italian seasoning, lemon zest kosher salt and freshly ground pepper. Spread onto a rimmed baking pan and cook for 6 - 8 minutes. Add the clams and crab claws to the soup and simmer gently, when the fish and shellfish are ready gently stir into the soup together with the pan juices. This recipe serves 6 and don’t forget the perfect accompaniment to Cioppino is sourdough garlic bread. Cioppino .pdf Download PDF • 119KB WANT TO LEARN MORE?
