This is one of the recipes I adopted — it's gotten 5 stars all around, so I won't change it, but I wouldn't use margarine or cooking oil — I would use either light olive oil or unsalted butter. I also might substitute half and half for the milk, to be a little decadent once in a while...

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 lb cod fish fillet
2 tablespoons margarine or cooking oil
1 medium onion, sliced
1/2 cup celery, diced
2 cups raw potatoes, diced
1/2 cup carrot, sliced
2 cups boiling water
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 cup milk

Directions

1
Cut cod fillets into bite sized pieces.
2
Melt margarine in large saucepan Cook onion and celery until onion is tender and translucent. Add potatoes, carrots, water, salt and pepper.
3
Cover and simmer 10 to 15 minutes until vegetables are tender.
4
Add fish and cook 10 minutes longer.
5
Add milk.
6
Reheat, but do not boil.
7
Serves 4.
8
Serve hot, with freshly baked home made bread or rolls and butter.

This is a lovely recipe I am happy to have come across. Quick, Healthy & Delicious! I make this recipe pretty much as listed, with the exception of using 4 cups fish broth instead of the boiling water, skim milk instead of regular milk and slightly more vegetables, instead of potato to make this dish less in carbohydrates. I also add Tarragon as well. I have made this soup with Cod, Pangasius and Tilapia and it always comes out brilliant!

This is a great basic chowder recipe. I added lots of flour to the milk, as others suggested, and I added 3 large garlic cloves and lemon pepper seasoning. I also didn't add any liquids until after the fish cooked (this was by accident from not carefully reading the instructions!), and this allowed the fish and veggies to really absorb the seasonings. It was a mistake, but one I will repeat. This was a nice change from how I usually cook fish (sauteeing) and I will be making it throughout the cold months. Thanks!

Pretty easy to make, and a good basic recipe. If you make it according to the directions, you will end up with a pretty bland meal. It also didn't have the thick consistency normally associated with 'Chowder'. I added flour for thickness, and spiced it up with a fair amount of garlic salt, as well as black pepper and crushed red pepper.
