A great, easy soup with cod, bacon, potatoes, and corn. You can replace the milk with half-and-half or cream and the fish with seafood if you want a richer chowder.
Ingredients
- 8 slices bacon, diced
- 1 large onion, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 ½ tablespoons seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
- 1 (16 ounce) can chicken broth
- 3 red potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 4 ears sweet corn, shucked and kernels cut off
- ½ cup water, or as needed to cover (Optional)
- 2 cups whole milk, or more as needed
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 pound thick cod fillets, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Directions
Step 1
Cook bacon in a soup pot over medium heat until crisp and brown, about 10 minutes. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon, leaving drippings in the pot.
Step 2
Cook and stir onion and red bell pepper until softened, about 5 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Stir in garlic and seafood seasoning. Cook and stir, 2 more minutes.
Step 3
Pour in chicken broth and stir in potatoes and corn; add water if needed to cover vegetables. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low; simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
Step 4
Stir in milk and butter until butter has melted; mix in reserved bacon. Bring the soup just to the boiling point and stir in cod and parsley; cook, stirring occasionally, until fish flakes easily, 5 to 8 minutes.
