Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 3 strips bacon, diced
  • 1 small onion, finely diced
  • 1 small rib celery, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 Yukon gold potato, peeled and diced
  • 1 1/2 cups seafood stock or fish stock
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 lb frozen mahi-mahi fillets, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1 bay leaf
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Place a pot over medium heat, and cook bacon until crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon; set aside. Leave 1 to 2 teaspoons drippings in the pot.
  2. Add onion and celery to the pot; sauté until softened, about 4 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  3. Add potatoes, stock, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and cook at a gentle simmer until potatoes are nearly tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in cream.
  4. Add the frozen mahi-mahi chunks directly into the hot chowder. Simmer uncovered until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 12 minutes.
  5. Remove bay leaf. Stir in bacon. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
