I make good seafood chowder. I say this with full confidence. I mean seriously -my chowder is the best. It’s a curse, sometimes, because I can never go over to your house when you are serving chowder and be satisfied
Ingredients
  • ½ onion (chopped)
  • 2 Tablespoons of butter
  • 2 carrots (chopped)
  • 2 stalks of celery (chopped)
  • 2 broccoli ends (chopped)
  • 1 large zucchini (chopped)
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 4 cups of water
  • Old Bay seasoning (to taste)
  • Fresh ground pepper
  • 1 jar of clam juice
  • Left over oyster nectar (optional)
  • ½ cup of frozen cooked muscles (shelled)
  • 2 frozen (raw) cod pieces
  • ½ cup of shrimp
  • ½ cup of frozen snow crab meat
  • 1 ½ cups of light cream
Method to the Rad-ness
  1. In a frying pan add the onions and butter and fry on medium until the onions are brown.
  2. While the onions are frying get a large pot and add the carrots, celery, broccoli ends and garlic with the water and boil on high until the carrots are soft (usually about 5 minutes). Add the onions and zucchini; boil for 4-5 minutes.
  3. Add all the seafood along with the clam juice and oyster nectar (optional). Once all the seafood is cooked reduce the heat to low-medium and add the cream. Let the pot simmer for 5 minutes, but never let it boil once you have added the cream.
