Instructions – How to Make Pacific Cod Chowder
Step 1: Cook the Bacon
In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the diced bacon over medium heat until it becomes crispy. Remove the bacon and set it aside, leaving the flavorful bacon grease in the pot.
Step 2: Sauté the Aromatics
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the bacon grease. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onions become soft and fragrant.
Step 3: Add the Vegetables & Broth
Stir in the diced potatoes, corn, carrots, and celery. Pour in the chicken broth and add the bay leaves, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let it cook for 10-15 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
Step 4: Add the Cod & Heavy Cream
Gently place the Pacific cod pieces into the pot. Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine. Simmer for 5-7 minutes, until the fish is fully cooked and flaky.
Step 5: Serve & Enjoy!
Remove the bay leaves, then ladle the chowder into bowls. Garnish with crispy bacon and fresh parsley. Serve hot with crusty bread or oyster crackers for the perfect meal!
