Youâd never guess that a rich and creamy clam chowder could be low-fat, but this one is! With lots of potatoes, turkey bacon and seasonings, this slimmed-down version, shared by Linda Tindel of Avondale, Arizona, is loaded with flavor. Ingredients:
2 turkey bacon strips, diced |
1 cup chopped onion |
2 cups cubed red potatoes |
2 cans (6-1/2 ounces each) minced clams, undrained |
1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth |
1 cup chopped celery |
1/2 teaspoon dried basil |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/2 teaspoon reduced-sodium seafood seasoning |
1/2 teaspoon salt-free lemon-pepper seasoning |
1/8 teaspoon white pepper |
1 tablespoon king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1-1/2 cups fat-free half-and-half |
Directions:
1. In a large nonstick saucepan, cook bacon and onion over medium heat until onion is tender. Add the potatoes, clams, broth, celery and seasonings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 12-15 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
2. In a small bowl, combine flour and half-and-half until smooth; stir into potato mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Yield: 4 servings.
