This is an adaptation of Moqueca Mista, a seafood stew from a region in Brazil, from Executive Chef Herb Wilson of Sushi Samba. It all starts with dende oil which, according to Chef Wilson, is the sole of the dish. Dende oil is a bright orange palm oil and a staple in Brazilian cuisine. Although his sauce included okra and nuts, I omitted both. Also, I "cheated" and used purchased sofrito in lieu of making my own from scratch. However, I did have home-made lobster stock in the freezer. I also used more mussels and fish and added some red chili flakes since I wanted a little more heat. For the side dish, I steamed jasmine rice in the rice cooker with some chimicurirri seasoning (parsley, garlic, oregano, cilantro, thyme, bay leaves).
