Oyster Stew

"This easy Oyster Stew Recipe is made with fresh oysters simmered in a creamy broth on the stove and ready in under an hour. Fresh oysters add a briny, umami flavor balanced by the sautéed veggies, cream, and rice that are pureed into a hearty stew to hold the oysters. Fresh oysters take center stage in this stew, with their briny flavor shining through. The key is to cook the oysters just until their edges curl, keeping them tender and delicate.  Rather than just a cream broth, this stew gets its depth from sautéed onions, celery, and rice simmered in chicken broth, then pureed into a rich base. There are no potatoes in this Southern stew. Once the broth becomes hot, you'll poach the oysters in the broth, giving them a similar texture to steamed oysters."
