Time 1h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 lbs russet potatoes, peeled and cubed (only for chowder)
1/2 lb bacon, fried crisp, drained and crumbled
1/2 cup flour, plus
2 tablespoons flour
16 ounces low sodium chicken broth
2 (14 3/4 ounce) cans creamed corn
1 (15 1/4 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 cup green onion, sliced thin and divided
1 small onion, minced
1/2 cup celery, minced
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
1/2 bell pepper, diced
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup milk
1/4 cup sherry wine
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 lb crawfish tail, with fat (louisiana crawfish, don't use chinese)
1 lb lump crabmeat, picked through for shells
salt
white pepper
red pepper

Steps:

  • Fry bacon, drain & crumble & set aside.
  • Saute onions, 3/4 of the green onions, bell pepper and celery in the bacon grease (or butter).
  • When onions are clear stir in the garlic and saute for 30 seconds.
  • Over medium heat add flour and make a light roux, stirring constantly for about 5 minutes, but don't brown.
  • Add chicken stock, milk and heavy cream then simmer until desired consistency.
  • Add corn, crawfish, crabmeat, sherry, and worchestershire sauce.
  • Stir well and simmer for 15-20 minutes. Season with salt, pepper to taste.
  • Serve in individual bowls and garnish with bacon crumbles and reserved green onions. Enjoy!
  • NOTE: Fresh cut corn makes this recipe even better. Use about 2 cups of fresh corn, with the milk from the cob. Hold the shucked corn over a bundt pan and just cut the corn from the cob. Go back over the cob with the dull side of the knife blade to get the extra milk. All of it will fall into the bundt pan for easy clean-up and transfer to your pot.

Yield Makes 4 first-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 16-ounce bag frozen petite white corn (do not thaw), divided
1 cup low-fat (1%) milk
1 8-ounce bottle clam juice
4 tablespoons sliced green onions, divided
2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh ginger, divided
4 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice, divided
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
4 ounces cooked crabmeat, flaked

Steps:

  • Reserve 1/4 cup corn. Bring remaining corn and milk to boil in medium saucepan. Cover; remove from heat. Let stand 10 minutes. Puree mixture in blender. Add clam juice, 3 tablespoons green onions, and 1 teaspoon ginger; puree again until almost smooth. Return puree to saucepan; bring to simmer. Mix in 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Melt butter in small skillet over medium heat. Add reserved 1/4 cup corn; sauté 1 minute. Add crab, 1 tablespoon green onions, 1 teaspoon ginger, and 3 teaspoons lemon juice; stir just until warm. Season with salt and pepper. Divide soup among bowls; mound crab mixture in center.

Tips:

  • Use fresh or frozen sweet corn. Fresh corn on the cob is best when it's in season, but frozen corn is a great option when fresh corn is unavailable.
  • Use real crab meat and crawfish tails. Canned or imitation crab meat and crawfish tails will not give your chowder the same flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot. If you add too much corn, crab, and crawfish to the pot, it will be difficult to cook the chowder evenly.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. In addition to corn, crab, and crawfish, you can also add other vegetables to your chowder, such as potatoes, carrots, celery, and onions.
  • Season the chowder to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste.
  • Serve the chowder hot. Corn, crab, and crawfish chowder is best served hot, with a side of bread or crackers.

Conclusion:

Corn, crab, and crawfish chowder is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a cold day. With its creamy broth, tender vegetables, and succulent seafood, this chowder is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a comforting and flavorful soup, give this corn, crab, and crawfish chowder a try.
