  • Author: Navy Sinclair
  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Description

A comforting, hearty bowl of creamy seafood chowder that brings cozy vibes and ocean flavor in every spoonful. Ideal for chilly nights or when you crave something soul-warming.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 4 cups seafood stock
  • 1 cup heavy cream (or half-and-half)
  • 1 pound seafood mix (shrimp, scallops, clams – fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced onion and chopped celery, cooking until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add diced potatoes and seafood stock. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer for 10–15 minutes until potatoes are fork-tender.
  3. Stir in the cream, seafood mix, and corn. Season with thyme, salt, and pepper. Simmer 5–7 minutes until seafood is fully cooked and flavors meld.
  4. Turn off the heat and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve hot in bowls and enjoy immediately.

Notes

Don’t overcook the seafood. For a deeper flavor, simmer seafood shells in your stock beforehand. Store leftovers in the fridge for 3 days or freeze up to 2 months.
