SPRING PEA FISH CHOWDER
Sweet peas, pea shoots, and a sprinkle of lemon zest give this light, just-creamy-enough chowder an extra dose of freshness. While cod might be a more traditional chowder choice, we love halibut for its meatier texture and sweeter flavor.

Steps:
- Cut leeks into 1/4" rounds. Rinse, tossing with hands so that leeks separate into individual rings, and drain thoroughly. Transfer to a medium pot. Add oil and toss to coat. Cover pot and cook over medium heat until leeks begin to soften, 5-6 minutes. Add potatoes, 1 tsp. kosher salt, and 1 1/2 tsp. pepper and stir to combine. Add clam juice, bay leaves, and 2 cups water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, uncovered, until potatoes are fork-tender, 10-12 minutes.
- Season halibut with remaining 1 tsp. kosher salt. Add to pot along with cream and peas and stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until halibut is opaque, 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice.
- Divide chowder among bowls. Top with pea shoots, basil, and lemon zest. Season with sea salt and a generous amount of pepper.

Tips:
- Prepare ingredients in advance: Finely dice the vegetables and herbs before starting to cook. This will save time and ensure even cooking.
- Choose the right fish: Any firm-fleshed white fish, such as cod, halibut, or haddock, will work well in this recipe. Avoid fish that are too flaky, as they will break up during cooking.
- Don't overcook the fish: The fish should be cooked until it is just opaque in the center. Overcooking will make the fish tough and dry.
- Add the cream and peas at the end: This will help to prevent the cream from curdling and the peas from becoming overcooked.
- Serve immediately: Fish chowder is best served hot. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Spring pea fish chowder is a delicious and hearty soup that is perfect for a cold day. It is also a great way to use up leftover fish.
