We thought this was really good! I only used half the cream cheese, doubled the potatoes (cooked in water with 2 chicken bouillon cubes, then drained), added some frozen corn and I also added quite a bit of old bay seasoning. I'll definitely make this again. Thanks for a fantastic recipe!

YUMM! I boiled some red potatoes in some water and bullion first and added some sprinkles of Old Bay seasoning at the end.

made this tonight for dinner. great base to start with but after reading some of the reviews I added a cream of potato soup to help thicken the sauce and definitely needed more seasoning.. I used Old bay we like it heavy... salt pepper and a touch of garlic powder.... nice thick chowder! oh and I also added corn cuz what is a chowder without it!

Good basic recipe. Prefer not to use cream cheese. I added more milk and thickeded with instant potato flakes before serving. Add potato before shrimp or the shrimp will overcook and be tough. Easy to enlarge measures of ingredients to produce larger or more servings.

Sounds really good, but recipe makes no provision for cooking the potatoes. Ooops!

Excellent! I doubled the recipe, except the cream cheese and added a bit more potatoes, old bay seasoning, dill weed, and black pepper. This was so easy and tasted wonderful.

This was delicious and quite easy to make. I followed the recipe, but as others suggested, I cooked the potatoes in chicken broth and then added the potatoes and some of the broth. I also added Old Bay to taste. To make it easier, I also used cooked salad shrimp...it was the perfect size and I didn't have to take off shells or cut up the shrimp.

Pretty good stuff! The whole family liked it. I used red potatoes and boiled them in chicken broth, old bay and creole seasoning. I then sauteed the celery and onions with a little old bay and creole. I added some frozen corn and all other ingredients as stated. I added some additional old bay and creole to taste and it was fabulous! This also doubles as a REALLY good chicken corn chowder if you add the corn. Just cube up your chicken and fry it. Then make the recipie with chicken. Yummy!

4.5 The deli had shrimp and bacon on sale but otherwise THEIR recipe (in their flyer) was JUST the same as this recipe minus the chopped bacon which got fried up first and really added to the flavour. Also added Old Bay seasoning instead of salt and had fresh shrimp, awesome.
