Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound fresh cod
  • 1 can smoked oysters in olive oil
  • 3 cups water
  • 3 cups regular milk
  • 2 potatoes peeled and chopped
  • avocado or olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh sage thinly sliced
  • 2 large leeks or onion sliced and washed
  • ½ teaspoon Hungarian paprika
  • 1 teaspoon yellow miso paste
  • 1 teaspoon salt more if you like
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • In a large pot, brown leeks in oil for 4 minutes.
  • Add cod and water.
  • Cover and bring to a boil and cook for 10 minutes until cod is cooked.
  • Add potatoes, oysters, paprika, sage, miso, salt, pepper, and milk.
  • Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
  • Stir occasionally to prevent sticking to bottom of the pot.
  • Serve hot.

Notes

  1. If you do not have smoked oysters, feel free to substitute clams or other seafood.
  2. I do not recommend making this dairy-free.
  3. This chowder will keep up to 4 days in an airtight container, or up to 4 months in the freezer.
Variations:
  • Red Potatoes - If you don’t have brown potatoes on hand, no biggie! You can replace them with red potatoes, and every bite will be just as scrumptious!
  • Mushrooms—If you are a fan of mushrooms, you should add a few! They give the dish an earthy flavor that can’t be beaten.
  • Onions - Can’t live without onions? Add some in this chowder and gobble up a bowl of hot soup.
  • Bacon - Seriously, everything is better when you add some salty bacon!
  • Spinach - Spinach is a perfect ingredient to add in so you can have some extra nutrients. Bonus points if your kids and spouse don’t notice!

SPECIAL NOTE

Please know that every gluten free flour blend has a different starch to grain ratio. If you use a blend I didn't test, you may need to adjust your moisture levels in your baked goods.
