Directions

  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. Cook and stir onion and red bell pepper until softened, about 5 minutes, season with salt and pepper. Stir in garlic and seafood seasoning and cook and stir 2 more minutes.

  2. 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. 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.

Recipe Note

A great, easy chowder made with bacon, potatoes, corn and fish. You can replace the milk with half-and-half or cream and the fish with seafood if you want a richer chowder.
