Indulge in the ocean’s bounty with Savor the Sea: Creamy Lobster & Scallop Chowder Delight 🦞🐚. This rich, velvety soup blends tender seafood and aromatic onions. Full instructions inside!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb fresh lobster meat, chopped
  • 1 lb sea scallops, cleaned and halved
  • 4 cups fish stock or seafood broth
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 medium potatoes, diced
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
  2. Step 2: Stir in the diced potatoes and cook for another 3-4 minutes, allowing them to soften slightly before adding the fish stock or seafood broth.
  3. Step 3: Once the broth is boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 15 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
  4. Step 4: Add the chopped lobster meat and halved scallops to the pot. Pour in the heavy cream and stir well to combine. Allow it to simmer gently for an additional 5-7 minutes until the seafood is cooked through.
  5. Step 5: Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot in bowls, garnished with fresh herbs if desired. Enjoy your creamy lobster and scallop chowder delight!

Notes

  • For optimal freshness, store any leftover chowder in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, and avoid freezing as it may affect the creamy texture.
  • When reheating, do so gently over low heat on the stove, stirring occasionally to prevent the seafood from becoming tough and the cream from separating.
  • Serve your chowder in warm bowls and consider garnishing with freshly chopped herbs like parsley or chives for an added burst of flavor and color.
  • For a richer taste, try using homemade seafood stock instead of store-bought broth, as it enhances the overall depth of flavor in your chowder.
