Seafood Chowder Recipe

Chowder Preparation

1. 1

   Sauté Vegetables

   In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, celery, and carrots, and sauté until the vegetables are soft, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes.

2. 2

   Add Potatoes and Stock

   Stir in the diced potatoes, fish stock (or clam juice), bay leaves, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

3. 3

   Incorporate Seafood

   Add the heavy cream, shrimp, scallops, and white fish to the pot. Stir gently to combine and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through.

4. 4

   Serve

   Remove bay leaves. Ladle the chowder into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve hot.
