Ingredients

  1. 1 skin-on trout, boned
  2. 2 onions, finely chopped, divided
  3. 1 (12 fluid ounce) bottle light-colored beer
  4. 1 lemon, sliced
  5. ¼ pound salt pork, cubed
  6. 2 tablespoons butter
  7. 3 stalks celery, diced
  8. 2 (14.5 ounce) cans chicken stock
  9. 2 potatoes, cubed
  10. salt and ground black pepper to taste
  11. 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  12. 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  13. 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Instructions

  1. Place trout, 1 onion, beer, and lemon in a heavy bottomed pot. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium and cook until trout easily flakes with a fork, about 15 minutes. Transfer trout to a flat work surface and remove skin. Discard beer, onion, and lemon.
  2. Place salt pork in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 5 minutes. Reserve drippings and drain salt pork on paper towels.
  3. Melt butter in the skillet. Add remaining onion and celery; saute until almost tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the pot. Stir in chicken stock, potatoes, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
  4. Place trout, salt pork, and heavy cream into the pot. Cook until chowder is heated through, about 5 minutes. Garnish with parsley and chives.
  5. Bacon may be substituted for the salt pork.

Delicious! I like to use this recipe to use up seafood in our freezer. I just made this with trout, clams, and mussels, and it was awesome!

Very good! I used half and half instead of full cream which made it a bit thinner. I also substituted thick cut bacon for salt pork. I will definitely make this again!
