Salmon and Corn Chowder

Salmon and Corn Chowder
Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 stalks celery, cut into 1/2-inch slices
  • 8 ounces unpeeled small red potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons freshly ground white pepper
  • 1 bunch green onions, coarsely chopped, including half of greens
  • 1 1/2 cups corn kernels (about 2 ears)
  • 4 cups fish or chicken stock
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 pounds salmon fillets, skin and pin bones removed, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • Grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh dill

Instructions

  1. Prepare a campfire or wood-fired grill for cooking with indirect heat.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy saucepan or Dutch oven over medium heat and sauté the celery for 3 minutes. Add the potatoes, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Stir in the green onions and corn and add 2 cups of the stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are almost tender, about 15 minutes.
  3. Add the cream and simmer, uncovered, until the potatoes are tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the salmon and lemon zest and simmer gently until the salmon is just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Add more stock as needed and lemon juice to taste. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
  4. Serve in bowls, topped with the dill.
