Panfish Chowder image

With my husband being an avid hunter and fisherman, I can never have enough new fish and wild game recipes. We especially enjoy this rich chowder. It's a hearty dish with big chunks of fish, potatoes and bacon in a tempting creamy broth. -Cyndi Fliss, Bevent, Wisconsin

I'm not a big fan of chowder, but this recipe changed my mind. It was creamy, flavorful, and packed with fish. I'll definitely be making it again.

I followed the recipe exactly but my chowder turned out way too salty. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This chowder was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used some more vegetables, like carrots or celery. I also found the consistency to be a bit too thin.

Overall, this chowder was good, but I think it needed a bit more seasoning. I added some extra salt, pepper, and garlic powder and it really improved the flavor.

This chowder was easy to make and turned out great! I used frozen panfish fillets and it still tasted fresh. I served it with some crusty bread and it was the perfect meal for a cold night.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a huge fan of fish, but I was pleasantly surprised! The chowder was creamy and flavorful, and the fish was cooked perfectly. I'll definitely be making this again.

This chowder was delicious! I used fresh panfish from a local lake and it was so flavorful. I also added a bit of extra Old Bay seasoning for a little kick.

This chowder was a hit with my family! It was creamy, flavorful, and packed with fish. I especially loved the addition of the corn and potatoes, which gave it a nice sweetness and heartiness.
