Chilli & Lime Seafood Chowder

Calling all seafood lovers! This creamy, tangy chowder is great as an entree, a snack or a casual main meal.

Serves:
Makes 5 cups
Preparation Time:
10 minutes
Cooking Time:
25 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp butter
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 Tbsp plain flour
  • 1 1/2 cups fish stock
  • 2 potatoes, peeled & diced
  • 1 Tbsp Gregg's Chilli & Lime Seasoning
  • 1 x 400ml can coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup whole kernel corn
  • 250g mixed seafood e.g. fish, prawns, mussels & scallops

Method

Heat the butter in a large saucepan over medium low heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until it is soft. Add the flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
Pour in the fish stock a little at a time, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.

When the fish stock has been completely added, add the potatoes and Gregg's Chilli & Lime Seasoning. Bring to the boil then simmer gently for 10 minutes or until the potato is just cooked. Use a stick blender in the saucepan to make a puree, alternatively remove from pan and use a blender or food processor to make a thick puree.

Return to the pan if removed and stir through the coconut milk. Simmer for a further 5 minutes. Finally add in the corn and diced seafood. Heat for a further 3-5 minutes or until seafood is just cooked.

Serve with crusty bread.

Hints & Tips

This has medium heat. For a milder dish reduce the quantity of Gregg's Chilli & Lime Seasoning.

    Flavour was delicious. I served it with bread as a entree for 4 adults. P.S. Love the Chilli and Lime Seasoning – have been using it for lots of things since.
