Directions Creamy Crab Chowder
Directions
-
Heat bacon grease and butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Saute onion, celery, and parsley until onion is browned, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and pour in stock. Slowly stir in cream, salt, seasoned salt, pepper, chili powder, dill, sugar, and cayenne pepper. Add crab and simmer until flavors combine, about 15 minutes.
Mix flour with water in a small bowl and pour into the soup. Stir to thicken slightly. Add sherry just before serving.
