Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Ingredients

    Chop the Alaskan halibut into bite-sized pieces. Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes. Finely chop the onion, celery, and garlic.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Sauté Vegetables

    In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, celery, and garlic, and sauté until they are translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. 3

    Add Potatoes and Broth

    Add the diced potatoes to the pot and stir well. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let it simmer for about 15 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.

  3. 4

    Add Halibut

    Once the potatoes are tender, add the halibut pieces to the pot. Stir gently to combine, and let it cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.

  4. 5

    Finish with Cream and Seasonings

    Pour in the heavy cream, and add salt, black pepper, thyme, and dill. Stir well to combine, and let the chowder simmer for another 5 minutes to heat through.

Serving

  1. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Ladle the chowder into bowls. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley before serving.
