Fish Chowder

I tried this great recipe yesterday. I found it on the Crockpot 365 blog. It was delicious. Even my 3 year old loved it. The only downside is the house still smells like fish...oh well. It was worth it. If you like seafood you gotta try this one! Enjoy.

Fish Chowder

1 lb of white fish (I used frozen Orange Roughy from Trader Joe's)
3 cups of chicken broth
9 baby potatoes (or 10. but not 11.)
1 cup frozen roasted corn
1/2 white onion
handful baby carrots
heart of celery
3-4 cloves of garlic
1/2 t black pepper
salt (to taste, especially if using homemade broth)
2 cups frozen shrimp (to add later)
1 cup heavy whipping cream (to add later)

--chop up all the vegetables. I used my handy-dandy Pampered Chef chopper
--cube the fish, it's okay if it's still frozen.
--dump everything except the cream and the shrimp into your stoneware insert

cook on low for 8-10 hours, or until the potatoes are tender. If your veggies are too big for your taste, use an immersion blender to smooth it out.

30 minutes before serving, stir in your cup of cream and the frozen shrimp. Turn your crockpot to high for the last 30 minutes.

Serve with a bit of fresh parmesan cheese.
