Codchickpeaolivestew Recipes

Steps:

• Mix the paprika, ginger, pepper and turmeric in a small bowl until combined; set aside.
• Heat 1/4 cup of the oil in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, onions and 1 tablespoon salt and cook, stirring and scraping occasionally, until the onions are very soft and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Add the carrots and poblano and cook until the colors brighten but the vegetables are not yet tender, about 3 minutes. Add half of the paprika mixture and stir to coat. Cook until the spices are very fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, olives, all of the chickpea liquid, half of the chickpeas and 1 cup water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, then cover and simmer until the vegetables are tender and the chickpeas are very soft, 35 to 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, position 2 oven racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
• Toss the kale, 2 teaspoons salt and the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil, chickpeas and paprika mixture in a large bowl until combined. Divide the kale mixture between 2 rimmed baking sheets and roast, tossing once, until the kale is charred in places, 15 to 25 minutes.
• Serve the stew with the roasted kale and chickpeas and top with labneh, parsley, a sprinkle of Aleppo pepper, a squeeze of lemon and toasted pita.

Steps:

• Fry the onions in the olive oil until softened. Add the garlic, white wine, and the bay leaves, simmer until reduced slightly.
• Add the tomatoes, chickpeas, olives, salt & pepper (to taste) and the water. Simmer for 15 minutes.
• Add the cod (cut into bite size chunks) and simmer for 6 to 8 minutes.

Steps:

• Rinse salt cod, then place in a bowl of cold water and soak for 8 hours or overnight. Change water every 2 hours if possible. (If desired, fully soaked cod may be refrigerated, drained and wrapped in plastic for up to 2 days.) Also put chickpeas in a bowl and cover with cold water by 2 inches. Leave to soak 8 hours or overnight.
• The next day, drain cod, chop it into 1-inch chunks, put it in a bowl and set aside. Put chickpeas and soaking water in a large pot over high heat. Add clove-stuck onion and bay leaf and bring to a boil. Skim foam, turn down heat and simmer for about 45 minutes, until tender. Halfway through cooking, add 2 teaspoons salt. Turn off heat and leave chickpeas in their broth until ready to use. (Chickpeas may be cooked several hours ahead or even a day in advance if desired.)
• Make the stew: In a heavy soup pot, warm olive oil over high heat. Add diced onion and let sizzle, then reduce heat and cook until softened, stirring, about 10 minutes. Stir in garlic, saffron, pimentón and tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes. Season mixture with salt and pepper. Add wine and bring to a brisk simmer. Drain chickpeas, reserving 6 cups of the broth. Add the broth and potatoes to the pot, cover and cook until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.
• Ladle about 2 cups of the stew's liquid over the salt cod pieces and let steep for 10 minutes (the fish will cook while steeping), then pour this mixture into the pot. Add the clams and reserved chickpeas to the pot and simmer, covered, until clams open, 5 to 7 minutes. To serve, stir in the cilantro and ladle the stew into big bowls.
