This gluten-free corn chowder is so satisfying, packed with flavor and perfect for cozy fall nights. Made with fresh corn and topped with flaky unctuous trout, it's a healthier twist on a classic recipe.
Peel the onion and potatoes. Dice the onion finely and cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Slice the corn from the cob vertically and set aside.
Sauté the onion:
In a medium to large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onions and cook until softened and translucent, but not caramelized.
Add vegetables and broth:
Add the potatoes, corn, and broth to the saucepan. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked through but still hold their shape.
Cook the fish:
While the potatoes are cooking, sear the fish fillets in a separate pan (brushed with olive oil) until barely cooked, this takes 2 minutes on each side.
Flake the fish roughly with 2 forks.
Combine and serve:
Once the potatoes are cooked, add the flaked salmon to the broth and remove the pan from the heat.
Stir in the lemon juice and chopped dill. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Divide the chowder between bowls and garnish with dill fronds, snipped chives, and a dollop of sour cream, if desired.
Notes
For a thicker chowder, slightly mash some of the potatoes before adding the fish.
Add a splash of white wine to the broth for extra flavor.
Garnish with more fresh herbs like lemon thyme or parsley and snip spring onions or chives for added freshness.
