Seafood Chili Delight

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Seafood Chili Delight.

1. Step 1

   To start your delicious seafood chili, grab a large stockpot and melt some butter over medium-low heat.

2. Step 2

   Once it’s nice and bubbly, toss in your diced fresh tomatoes, chopped bell peppers, crushed garlic, and chopped green onions.

3. Step 3

   Stir everything together and let it simmer, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down and become almost liquid, which should take about 30 minutes to an hour.

4. Step 4

   Next, add in the drained kidney beans, baby corn, and chopped celery.

5. Step 5

   Sprinkle in the chili powder and squeeze in some fresh lime juice, then season with a pinch of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.

6. Step 6

   Cover the pot and let it cook on low heat, stirring now and then, until the celery is tender yet still has a bit of crunch, which will take around an hour.

7. Step 7

   Now it’s time to elevate your chili! Gently fold in the cooked crabmeat and a can of whole peeled tomatoes, including their juices.

8. Step 8

   Use a wooden spoon to break the tomatoes into thirds, mixing them in well.

   Taste your creation and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper, and if it’s a bit too salty, a tiny pinch of brown sugar can help balance the flavors.
