A comforting bowl of creamy seafood chowder filled with shrimp, scallops, and white fish, layered with flavors of bacon and fresh vegetables.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 0.5 lb shrimp
  • 0.5 lb white fish (cod or haddock)
  • 0.5 lb scallops
  • 4 slices bacon
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 small onion
  • 2 stalks celery
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups potatoes
  • 3 cups seafood stock or chicken stock
  • 1 cup corn
  • 1.5 cups heavy cream
  • Salt & pepper
  • Fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Cook the bacon in a large pot over medium heat until crisp. Remove and drain on paper towels, keeping the fat in the pot.
  2. Add butter to the bacon fat. Once melted, add diced onion and celery, sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in minced garlic and thyme, cooking for an additional minute.
  4. Sprinkle flour over the mixture, stirring to combine. Gradually pour in seafood stock while whisking to avoid lumps. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
  5. Stir in diced potatoes and corn. Season with salt and pepper, simmer for about 10 minutes until potatoes are tender.
  6. Gently add shrimp, scallops, and white fish. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until the seafood is opaque.
  7. Reduce the heat to low, pour in heavy cream, and stir. Warm through for 3-5 minutes. Adjust seasoning as necessary.
  8. Ladle the chowder into bowls, crumble bacon on top, and garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

Pairs beautifully with crusty bread or a simple green salad. For extra flavor, serve with chilled white wine.
