Jenna's Treats & Eats: Get Baked! {Chowder}

Hey everyone,

Since the last couple of days have been so dreary I figured this would be a great time to share with you a simple and soul warming dish that the hubby and I have been enjoying lately. This baked chowder is wonderful on these miserable grey days, and since you can use any mild white fish and just about any combination of vegetable it is a great way to use up some of the odds and ends that may be kicking around in your fridge.

Ingredients:

1 pound mild white fish, cut into pieces

½ tsp paprika

½ a large sweet potato, peeled and cubed

3 carrots, sliced thin

2 stalks of celery, sliced thin

½ a large onion, finely chopped

1 Tbsp olive oil

2 ½ cups vegetable stock

1 bay leaf

1 cup frozen corn kernels

½ cup coconut milk

Salt and pepper to taste

Parsley for garnish- optional

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. In an 8x11 baking dish combine sweet potato, carrots, celery, onion and olive oil. Pour stock over vegetable mixture and add the bay leaf. Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. While it’s baking, season the fish with paprika and set aside.

Remove dish from the oven, add fish and corn and bake, covered, for another 30 minutes or until the fish flakes easily. Remove and discard the bay leaf.

Gently heat the coconut milk and stir into the chowder, breaking the fish up into chunks as you go.

Season with salt and pepper, garnish with parsley and enjoy!
