Cod Chowder

Years ago I made a pot of chowder with big chunks of Pollock and loved it. Way more than clam chowder since I'm not fond of those at all, also mussels, scallops, oysters. . .no thanks.

I saw this Cod and right away thought chowder.

• 3 sm. onions
• 3-4 celery stalks
• and tops for later
• 5 cloves of garlic
• 2T EVOO

Sad Potato ?

-   -   -   -   -

• 2c chicken bone broth
• 4c water
• 1T dry dill
• 3 bay leaves
• 1/2 lemon - juice and zest
• 1T Original Old Bay Seasoning
• 5 sm. Yukon Gold potatoes cut in chunks

-   -   -   -   -

• 1 can cream of mushroom type soup
• 1-1/4# thick cut cod - cut in chunks

In a 4-5 quart pot, stir-saute the first group for about 10 minutes, then reduce heat and add bone broth and everything else in that group. (I forgot about potatoes until the end, so I partially cooked them separately, then added them with some of the cooking water - but add them with the broth group.) Simmer, covered another 20 minutes then add the soup and cod. Bring back to a simmer, cover and cook another 10 minutes. Remove from the heat. Let it just rest, covered another 10 minutes before serving. . .Lin
