Frogmore Stew

Frogmore Soup

Scooped again from the pages of Runner’s World magazine, my ongoing monthly copycat recipe is a winner. (To see other Runner’s World, healthy recipes, go to dinnerFeed.comand type ‘Runner’s World’ into the search box.)

Tonight’s dinnerFeed features Pam Anderson’s recipe from the September issue of Runner’s World. I was delighted to see this recipe, named after a fishing community in coastal South Carolina. I love clam bakes, and though this is certainly not a clam bake, it offers a short-cut to some of the same delicious flavors I crave.

The shrimp was cooked in the stew with the shells on; the shells add a great deal of flavor to the dish. I cut the recipe in half; it was easier to manage in one pot and it amply served four. We omitted the optional butter and I added a sprinkle of hot pepper flakes for spice and chopped parsley for color.

This is a friendly, fun and mouth-watering stew – make sure you pass plenty of napkins!

Recipe: Frogmore Stew

Ingredients

  • 1 medium onion, peeled and quartered
  • 2 large garlic cloves, smashed
