When you say seafood chile I think of something like the following, only "augemented", of course, with the appropriate amounts of chiles, chopped jalapenos and serranos with cayenne powder to adjust the heat upwards. I got this recipe from <soar.berkeley.edu>. I usually use several types of fish, snapper, halibut, etc. and throw in some small shrimp. Enjoy!
