Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion, celery, and carrot. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the onion is translucent.

  2. 2

    Add Garlic

    Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Incorporate the Potatoes

    Add the diced potatoes to the pot and stir well to combine with the sautéed vegetables.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Add Broth and Fish

    Pour in the fish stock or clam broth, and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

  2. 5

    Season the Chowder

    Add the salt, black pepper, thyme, and bay leaf. Stir well to combine. Then, gently add the fish fillets to the pot, making sure they are submerged in the broth.

  3. 6

    Finish with Cream

    Simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through. Remove the bay leaf and stir in the heavy cream, mixing well until heated through.

Serving

  1. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Ladle the chowder into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
