Enjoy a hearty bowl of creamy clam and potato chowder that balances velvety texture with ocean-fresh clams, tender potatoes, and aromatic vegetables. This light yet satisfying dish offers warmth and comfort with every spoonful, making it a nutritious option any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz canned clams (drained solids)
1 medium potato (approx 150g)
1 stalk celery
1 medium carrot
1 small onion
1 clove garlic
1/2 cup low-fat milk (2%)
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Rinse and drain the canned clams, reserving a little of the clam juice if desired for extra flavor.
Peel and dice the potato into small cubes to ensure they cook evenly.
Chop the celery, carrot, and onion into small pieces. Mince the garlic.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the onion, celery, carrot, and garlic until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the diced potato and stir for another 2 minutes to coat with the oil and veggies.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Allow the potato to cook until tender, approximately 10-12 minutes.
Stir in the low-fat milk and add the clams (with a little reserved clam juice if using). Warm through gently, taking care not to overboil to prevent curdling.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, and finish with fresh parsley. Stir well and heat for an additional 2 minutes.
Serve warm and enjoy your comforting, healthy chowder.
