This was my first time making fish chowder and this recipe came out great! I used low sodium broth to make up for the very salty clam juice. I think next time I might just use 1 cup evaporated milk and maybe 3 cups potatoes. I topped with turkey bacon and used a little hot sauce. Delicious!

Excellent chowder. I had a pkg. of cod that needed to come out of the freezer and a new container of Old Bay Seasoning - a match made in heaven. I used potatoes and evaporated milk in my husband's half and no potatoes and half and half in my half (Atkins diet) and no mushrooms because I didn't have any and no roux (Atkins again) with clam juice. I, instead, split a can of clams with the juice. It was so good, I still have a smile on my face.

This was pretty decent, but nothing exceptional. My husband would probably give it 5 stars and I would give it 3 so we compromised at 4.

This was good. We all liked it. It reminded me a lot of clam chowder, but with a slightly different fish flavor. I would make this again for sure. Definitely a hardy meal that warms the belly on a cold night.

I have been on this site for years and have never rated anything. This soup is so good and so easy that I felt like I literally had to comment. I only had 1 lb of some random white fish in the freezer and only 1 can of evaporated milk, so I was short 1 can of milk and 1 lb of fish. I added an extra cup of chicken stock to compensate. I did add in 3 cubed potatoes and a can of corn for some texture. Even missing some stuff, this chowder turned out delicious.

we loved it! thank you for the recipe. made it per the recipe just added a splash of white wine to the saute and a couple carrots for color. oh and just for our preference we like chowders spicier (added cayenne) and on the thick side so i added a few instant potato flakes at the end to quick thicken it which was great but i think it did change the texture from what was intended, we were hungry though no time to flour thicken again. flavor was wonderful and delicate, we topped with a few french fried onions and paired with an alton brown recipe for creamed corn corn bread with a drizzle of maple syrup. yum went nicely with the spicy chowder. one thing maybe someone can tell me, but my fish sort of disappeared texture wise. i followed the recipe and i didn't have any chunks of fish. it was still really great, maybe that's how it's suppose to be. maybe i needed thicker fillets.

This was a GREAT recipe! I will definitely make it again and again. I did add more seasoning than what was called for based on other reviewers. Tured out awesome!

Very good! We used a bit of extra Old Bay seasoning and added an extra tablespoon of butter at the end, but other than that followed the recipe.

Am eating my first bowl of this right now. Made it exactly as stated. Quite delicious, will make again. You have to kind of hover around the stove so that you don't overcook either the potatoes or the fish but it is worth it!
