I can not believe that I haven’t shared this recipe yet! Sometimes I just take for granted that all of our favorite meals are already here! This is one of my favorite soups to make. It a very hearty and filling meal in a bowl and comes together quite quickly. Be careful of the potatoes — if you get too many this quickly becomes potato soup instead of clam chowder.
Clam Chowder
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 1 Tablespoon oil
- 1 small onion, finely diced
- ½ cup dry white wine
- ½ cup flour
- 2 cups dairy (milk or half and half — any combination to equal 2 cups total)
- 1 cup homemade chicken broth
- 3, 6 oz cans chopped clams
- 1 pound potatoes, cut in to ½ inch pieces
- 2 cups corn
- 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions

- Add onion and cook for 5 minutes.
- Stir in wine and cook for 1 minute.
- Sprinkle in flour, stirring and cooking for another minute.
- Gradually add dairy and chicken broth, whisking constantly to avoid clumps.
- Drain liquid from clams and add 1 cup of the broth to the pot. Set clams aside.
