Yield Makes 4 main-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 bacon slices, cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces
1 medium onion, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 celery ribs, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 pound boiling potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup water
2 cups whole milk
1 pound skinless salmon fillet, trimmed of dark flesh, then cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Cook bacon in a 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until crisp, then transfer to paper towels to drain. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons fat from saucepan, then add onion, celery, potatoes, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in water and bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, until potatoes are almost tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Add milk and simmer, uncovered, until potatoes are tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in salmon, dill, and butter and simmer gently until salmon is just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Serve sprinkled with bacon.

This chowder was a disappointment. The salmon was overcooked and the dill was overpowering.

This chowder was a great way to use up leftover salmon. It was easy to make and very flavorful.

I made this chowder in a slow cooker and it was perfect for a cold winter day. I served it with a side of cornbread and it was a delicious and hearty meal.

This chowder was a bit too thick for my liking. I would add more liquid next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great. The only thing I would change is to add more vegetables.

This chowder was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning.

I've made this chowder several times now and it's always a hit. I like to add a bit of spice with some cayenne pepper.

I'm not a big fan of fish, but this chowder changed my mind. The salmon was so tender and flaky, and the dill gave it a nice subtle flavor.

This chowder was a delightful blend of flavors and textures. The salmon was cooked perfectly, and the dill added a refreshing touch. I served it with a side of crusty bread and it was a hit with my family.
