COCONUT COD CHOWDER



Coconut Cod Chowder image

This herb-laced chowder gets its silky texture and nutty flavor from coconut milk, a plant-based substitute for the more traditional heavy cream used in many chowders. Cannellini beans are a protein-rich swap for potatoes that offer a creamy, satisfying bite.

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 stalks celery, sliced
1 onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Two 8-ounce bottles clam juice (see Cook's Note)
One 15-ounce can coconut milk
1 1/4 pounds cod fillet, cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks
One 15-ounce can cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup yellow or gold grape tomatoes, halved
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/3 cup finely chopped fresh dill, plus more for garnish
1/3 cup finely chopped fresh parsley, plus more for garnish
1/3 cup thinly sliced scallions, plus more for garnish
Crushed red pepper flakes, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a Dutch oven or large saucepan over medium heat until glistening. Add the celery, onion, garlic and a generous pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened but not browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add the clam juice and coconut milk and bring just to a simmer. Add the cod and beans, then cover and simmer over low heat until the fish is just cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add the tomatoes and lemon juice; let stand for 1 minute. Gently stir in the dill, parsley and scallions and season with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls and serve, passing additional herbs and crushed red pepper, if using, at the table.

Tips:

  • Fresh seafood is key: Use the freshest cod and oysters you can find for the best flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: When cooking the cod, make sure to not overcrowd the pot or the fish will steam instead of sear.
  • Season the chowder well: Don't be afraid to season the chowder generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as paprika, thyme, or cumin, to taste.
  • Use a good quality coconut milk: The coconut milk is a key ingredient in this chowder, so make sure to use a good quality brand.
  • Serve with seasoned oyster crackers: The seasoned oyster crackers add a delicious crunch and flavor to the chowder.

Conclusion:

Coconut cod chowder is a delicious and easy-to-make seafood soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. The combination of cod, coconut milk, and vegetables creates a creamy and flavorful chowder that is sure to please everyone at your table.
