Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Fresh trout fillets
- 3 medium Russet potatoes
- 1 medium Onion
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 2 Celery stalks
- 1 cup Frozen corn kernels
- 4 cups Chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Flour
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Smoked paprika
Instructions
Prepare the vegetables: Peel and dice the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Finely chop the onion, mince the garlic, and slice the celery.
In a small skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and whisk in the flour. Stir constantly for 1-2 minutes to create a roux. Set aside.
Lay the trout fillets on a cutting board and check for any remaining bones. Remove the skin, if necessary, and cut the fish into bite-sized chunks.
In the crock pot, combine the potatoes, onion, garlic, celery, frozen corn kernels, and broth.
Add the trout pieces, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Stir gently to mix the ingredients without breaking up the fish.
Cover the crock pot and cook on low heat for 4 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and the flavors meld together.
Once the cooking time is complete, gently stir in the prepared roux, followed by the heavy cream. Let the chowder sit for an additional 10 minutes to thicken.
Finely chop the fresh dill and stir it into the chowder just before serving.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.
Ladle the chowder into bowls and serve warm. Enjoy with a side of crusty bread or crackers for a perfect meal.
