Chunks of tender potatoes are the hallmark of New England-style chowders. To save time, use packaged diced potatoes and onion found in the refrigerator case of the supermarket.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup thinly sliced leek
1 cup thinly sliced celery
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 cups refrigerated diced potato with onion (such as simply potatoes)
2 cups frozen whole-kernel corn
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
2 (14-ounce) cans fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
3/4 pound bay scallops
1/2 cup half-and-half
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Directions:
1. Melt the butter in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add leek and celery; sauté 2 minutes. Sprinkle with flour, stirring to coat. Add potato and next 5 ingredients (potato through broth). Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low. Cover and cook 6 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Add scallops, and cook 2 minutes or until scallops are done. Stir in half-and-half and parsley.
