Seafood Chowder

Serve this hearty chowder for dinner with a green salad and crusty artisan bread from our bakery.

6-8 servings
Preparation time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

1 pound Lunds & Byerlys Raw Shrimp, peeled and deveined*
1 pound skinless Atlantic salmon
½ pound bay scallops
15 mussels (optional)
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped carrots
1 cup chopped celery
2 cups chopped potatoes
½ cup corn kernels
¼ cup flour
1 quart seafood stock
3 tablespoons whipping cream
2 tablespoons snipped parsley

Directions

  1. Rinse and drain the shrimp and salmon.
  2. Cut the salmon into 2-inch pieces.
  3. Rinse the mussels in cold water, discarding any that are open. With a stiff brush, scrub the mussels to remove dirt and beards. In a large bowl, cover the mussels with water, add 2 tablespoons of salt and let them stand for 5 minutes. Repeat 2 to 3 more times.
  4. Melt butter in a heavy-bottom Dutch oven. Add the olive oil, onions, carrots, celery, potatoes and corn. Sauté over medium-low heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in flour until smooth.
  5. Stir the seafood stock into sautéed mixture. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
  6. Add the seafood, cover and simmer until just cooked, 6 to 10 minutes.
  7. Discard any unopened mussels. Stir in the cream and parsley and serve.

*If using cooked shrimp, add in after step 6.
