Chatham Seafood Chowder image

Here's a real simple seafood chowder from Cape Cod. The secret is fresh fish and small tender clams. Some of the big surf clams or ocean quahogs can be too tough.

Categories     Chowders

Number Of Ingredients 5

1- 1-1/2 pound(s) fresh cod or haddock
1 pound(s) chopped clams (i've had to used canned clams before!)
1 large - onion, diced
3 medium - yukon gold potatoes, cubed
1 quart(s) heavy cream (omg, the cholesterol!!)

Steps:

  • In large pot, add diced onions and clams with juice. Cook until onions are clear.
  • Add potatoes and just enough water to cover potatoes. Cook until almost cooked.
  • Add fish (do not stir. fish will break up). Cook for 2 minutes. Lower heat to simmer, add cream with a pad of butter.
  • Cover pan and once butter has melted, it's ready to serve
