I have never tried this only because I like New England style clam chowder better than Manhattan style. Ingredients:
1 (8 1/2 ounce) can minced clams |
3 slices bacon, cut up |
1/2 cup finely chopped celery |
1 cup chopped onion |
1 (16 ounce) can tomatoes, cut up, save juice |
2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced |
1/2 cup finely chopped carrot |
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and finely chopped |
1/2 teaspoon crushed dried thyme |
Directions:
1. Drain clams-reserve liquid. Add water to clam liquid to make 3 cups.
2. Partially cook bacon, stir in celery and onion and cook till tender Stir in tomatoes and juice, clam juice, potatoes, carrots, thyme, 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp white (or black) pepper.
3. Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer 30 min (till veggies are tender). Mash slightly to thicken.
4. Stir in clams and heat through.
