How to Make Savory Shrimp Chowder
- Dice 1 medium onion, 2 carrots (chopped), and 2 celery stalks (chopped).
- In a medium saucepan, sauté the diced onion, carrots, and celery in 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat until softened (about 5 minutes).
- Add 4 cups of chicken broth to the saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes.
- While the vegetables simmer, melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a large pan over medium heat.
- Whisk in 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper until smooth.
- Gradually whisk in 2 cups of half-and-half into the butter/flour mixture until smooth and thickened. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Carefully pour the cooked vegetables and their broth into the thickened white sauce.
- Add 1 pound of cooked shrimp (peeled and deveined), and 1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar to the chowder.
- Heat through gently for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Top each serving with 2 tablespoons of crumbled cooked bacon.
