FISH CHOWDER



Fish Chowder image

This comforting bowl of chowder uses the natural starches found in russet potatoes to provide body, while a touch of heavy cream adds a velvety richness. The result is a naturally gluten-free soup with a light, creamy consistency that lets more delicate flavors like shallots and fish shine through.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Soups, Stews & Stocks     Soup Recipes

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 strips bacon (about 2 ounces), finely chopped
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
5 ounces shallots, minced (about 1 cup)
1/4 cup dry white wine
2 medium russet potatoes, peeled and cubed (about 2 1/2 cups)
2 cups chicken stock
2 cups bottled clam juice
1 thyme sprig
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 pounds skinless firm white-fleshed fish, such as cod, bass, or red snapper, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Cook bacon in a medium stockpot over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until light golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in butter until melted. Add shallot and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add wine; cook, stirring, until almost no liquid remains, about 45 seconds.
  • Add potatoes, stock, clam juice, and thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook until potatoes are tender but not falling apart, 8 to 10 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high; season fish with salt and stir in with cream. Heat until warmed through and fish is opaque throughout, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your chowder a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include potatoes, carrots, celery, onions, and corn. For a chowder with a more rustic flavor, try using some chopped greens, such as kale or spinach.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables. You want them to be tender but still have a little bit of a bite to them.
  • Use a good quality fish. This is the star of the show, so make sure it's fresh and flavorful. Some good options include cod, haddock, salmon, or tilapia.
  • Don't crowd the pan. If you're using a lot of fish or vegetables, cook them in batches so that they don't steam instead of fry.
  • Season to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a splash of lemon juice or white wine for a bit of acidity.
  • Serve with a side of bread or crackers. This will help to soak up the delicious broth.

Conclusion:

Vegetable fish chowder is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's a great way to use up leftover fish and vegetables, and it's also a relatively inexpensive meal to make. If you're looking for a comforting and satisfying soup, vegetable fish chowder is a great option. So next time you're in the mood for a bowl of soup, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
