Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 onion, finely chopped
1 celery stalk, finely chopped
1 carrot, peeled and finely chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound baby potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1/4-inch rounds
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 cups fresh corn kernels (from 2 ears), or 10 ounces frozen
1 zucchini, halved lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch pieces
1/2 cup heavy cream
4 ounces hot-smoked salmon, skin removed, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Oyster crackers, for serving

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a pot over medium heat. Add onion, celery, and carrot; season with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 6 minutes. Add potatoes, broth, and 2 cups water; bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and simmer, partially covered, until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes. Add corn and zucchini; simmer, stirring occasionally, until just tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in cream and fish. Season with pepper and serve with oyster crackers.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon. Fresh wild salmon is ideal, but frozen salmon will work as well. If using frozen salmon, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight before cooking.
  • Don't overcook the salmon. Salmon is a delicate fish that can easily be overcooked. Cook it gently over medium heat until it is just cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. This recipe calls for zucchini, corn, and potatoes, but you can use any vegetables that you like. Some other good options include carrots, celery, peas, and tomatoes.
  • Season the chowder well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, and herbs to season the chowder to your taste. Some good options include thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves.
  • Serve the chowder hot. Chowder is best served hot, with a side of bread or crackers.

Conclusion:

Salmon zucchini chowder is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. It is packed with flavor and nutrients, and it can be made with a variety of different vegetables. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give this salmon zucchini chowder a try.
