Let's Get Started
- In a large pot, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside, leaving the bacon fat in the pot.
- Add the diced onion, celery, and carrot to the pot. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the diced potatoes and fish stock to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
- Add the chunks of white fish fillets to the pot. Cook for 5 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Stir in the heavy cream and chopped fresh thyme. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Simmer for an additional 5 minutes to heat through.
- Serve the Boston Fish Chowder hot, garnished with the crispy bacon and chopped fresh parsley.
