Seafood Chowder Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
4 tbsp. finely cut baconSm. to med. onion, chopped
2 (7 oz.) cans minced clams, lobster or other seafood
2 c. diced potatoes
1 c. sliced carrots
1 c. chopped onions
1/2 c. sliced celery
1 1/2 c. boiling water
2 c. milk (or more to suit taste)
1 tsp. salt
Dash of pepper
Cooking Directions
Cook bacon slowly in pan until fat begins to fry out; add onions and cook over low heat until yellow. Add liquid from seafood, water and vegetables. Cook until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.I put carrots in first since they usually take a little longer to cook. Just before serving, add seafood, milk, salt and pepper. Heat to boiling, stirring occasionally. Add thickening if desired. Serve immediately. NOTE: Butter may be used in place of bacon.
