Northwest Salmon Chowder image

I've lived on a farm in the Yakima Valley all my life. I have a big garden, and by the end of fall, my cellar shelves are full of canned fruits and vegetables. This recipe uses some of the root vegetables I grow...along with the delicious salmon that is so plentiful here. -Josephine Parton, Granger, Washington

EASY, CREAMY ONE-POT SALMON CHOWDER RECIPE



Easy, Creamy One-Pot Salmon Chowder Recipe image

As a born-and-bred Boston kid, chowder holds a special place in my heart, and fish-based chowders doubly so, as a fish chowder was the very first dish I ever got to stick on a real restaurant menu. It was creamy, rich, and satisfying, and totally impractical for any kind of home cooking. At home, I take a much more traditional one-pot approach to chowder-making. While the resulting dish it may not quite reach the lofty heights of fine dining, the results are still creamy, satisfying, delicious, a great use of leftovers or inexpensive fish, and-most important-really, really easy.

MOM'S NOVA SCOTIA SEAFOOD CHOWDER



Mom's Nova Scotia Seafood Chowder image

Being from the Easy Coast, I've tried a lot of different chowders; however, my Mom's takes the cake. She makes a huge pot of this chowder every Christmas Eve and all of it is gone by Christmas night. Although it is not very healthy, it is an awesome treat once in awhile for any of us that love seafood! I normally throw in a dash of garlic and onion powder. Enjoy!

1/2 c. minced onions
1/2 c. minced celery
1/2 c. total minced bell pepper green & red
1 minced clove of garlic

1 c. carrots cubed about 1/4"
2 c. good quality chicken broth
1/2 t. dill weed
1 c. zucchini cubed 1/2"
1 x 7.5 oz can salmon (I buy the ones just meat, w/o bones)
about 1 lb cooked frozen shrimps
about 1/2 lb frozen scallops
1 1/2 c. milk (I use skim milk)
1 x 10 oz can creamed corn
pepper
1/2 c. fresh parsley

Add pepper, mix and let simmer an other 5 min. Add fresh parsley on each portion.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your chowder.
