How to Make Awesome Lobster Chowder
- Peel and dice potatoes. Chop onion, celery, and bell pepper.
- In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add the diced potatoes and cook for 20 minutes, or until tender.
- While potatoes cook, melt 1/4 cup of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onions, celery, and bell pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, or until softened.
- Sprinkle with flour, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, to create a roux.
- Pour the vegetable mixture into the saucepan with the cooked potatoes.
- In the same skillet, melt the remaining 1/4 cup of butter over medium heat. Add the chopped lobster meat.
- Cook, stirring gently, for 4 minutes, until heated through. Do not overcook.
- Add the cooked lobster to the potato and vegetable mixture.
- Stir in the evaporated milk.
- Heat over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, or until heated through and flavors have melded. Do not boil.
- Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
