Easy Salmon Chowder with Fresh Dill
Ingredients:
- 4 tsp Butter
- ½ cup Carrots, peeled and ¼” dice
- ½ cup Celery, ¼” dice
- 2 cups Chicken Broth
- 1 ½ cups Whole Milk
- 1 ½ cups Russet Potatoes, peeled and ½” dice
- 1 bag Tommy’s Cauliflower and Green Beans, frozen
- 6 oz Salmon, skin removed and cut into ½” cubes
- 1 tsp Dijon Mustard
- 2 dashes Old Bay Seasoning
- Fresh Dill, to garnish
NOTE: You may substitute leftover cooked salmon in place of raw salmon.
Directions:
- Place a 2 quart sauce pan over medium-high heat and immediately add butter. Once melted and bubbling, add the carrots and celery and cover with a lid. Cook stirring occasionally until softened, about 8 minutes. Stir in the diced potatoes, chicken broth, and milk and increase heat to high.
- Once the chowder comes to a boil, reduce heat to medium and simmer until the potatoes are fully cooked, about 15 minutes.
- Transfer soup to a blender in several batches and blend until thick and chunky. Blend in the additional 1 tsp of butter and adjust thickness with the additional ½ cup of milk. Once blended, return to medium heat and bring back to a simmer, stirring and scraping the bottom of the sauce pan every 1-2 minutes.
- Stir in the salmon, Tommy’s Cauliflower and Green Beans, and the Dijon mustard. Continuing to stir occasionally, allow the soup to return to a simmer (180F) remain there for at least 5 additional minutes before serving.
- Serve in mugs or bowls, garnished with fresh dill.
