Halibut and four kinds of shellfish star in this stew served at Kirsten Dixon's Tutka Bay Lodge. Chorizo and saffron give it a bit of Spanish influence.
King crabs are most often eaten as steamed crab legs dipped in butter, but here they're incorporated into a savory beignet, with a nori-laced aïoli for dipping.
