Seafood and Corn Chowder

We had this for dinner last night and I couldn't wait to share! You've got to try this. It is so good. Very few ingredients and very little time to prepare equals a fantastic meal in no time. Fresh corn from the cob works best in this recipe.














Ingredients

  • 1 lb of fresh or frozen seafood mix (I used shrimp, calamari, and scallops)
  • 1/4 cup of all purpose flour
  • 1/2 stick of butter
  • 3 cups of milk (I used almond milk)
  • 2 cups of chicken broth
  • 2 cups of fresh or frozen corn
  • 2 cups of seasoned frozen chopped potatoes
  • 1/4 tsp of black pepper
  • 1 tsp of sea salt

Directions
In a 4 quart pot add the butter and cook on medium heat until melted. Once the butter has melted, stir in the flour until well blended. Stir in the milk and cook until the mixture has thickened. Then stir in the potatoes, chicken broth, black pepper, and sea salt. Cook for 15 - 20 minutes or until the potatoes are done. Add the corn and seafood mix and cook for approximately 10 - 15 minutes or until the seafood is done and the broth is thick and creamy. You will know that the seafood is done by the whitening of the shrimp, etc. Serve in 8 - 10 oz bowls and let cool for approximately 5 minutes. Enjoy! 

Makes 4 - 6 servings.
