Very Good! Read the reviews and comments and took them into consideration. Used Mahi Mahi (frozen fillets from Costco) and Shrimp (frozen with tails on). Used 1 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream and about 1-2 Cups of Whole Milk total. (In addition to the Chicken Broth as directed.). Might try Clam Juice next time to get even more seafood flavor. Easy and tasty!
Ended up adding Salt, Pepper and Hot Sauce (Colula) to my individual bowl of chowder.

So disappointed. I put a lot of money and effort into this soup and had such high expectations. There was way too much liquid. I also thought it was bland. I ended up straining the seafood and veggies out of all of the liquid and threw the rest away.

My family loved this soup, but I made a few modifications to account for my ingredients on hand. I used 1 lb tilapia, 1/2 lb shrimp, and 1/2 lb scallops. I thought I had potatoes, but I didn’t…so I used some broccoli instead! Sounds crazy, but it was sort of like a creamy broccoli seafood soup. I quite liked it! Also, I used a mix of regular and smoked paprika, just because I love smoked paprika. I used about 4 c. chicken stock. It was homemade, and unsalted, so I added some salt to the pot, as well. I also reduced the milk somewhat. I think I only used about 4 cups. Any more and my pot would’ve been overflowing! After making the milk mod, I think using 8 c. milk would’ve been too much…perhaps accounting for the blandness theimp spoke of. I realize I made so many mods that the soup I made is almost not this soup at all, but this “beaucoup seafood chowder” recipe was a great base recipe to get me going!

I followed this recipe precisely, using haddock and shrimp and we ended up tossing most of it. It was so bland as to be inedible. Adding more spice just made it worse, unfortunately.

I basically did follow this recipe, instead of using chicken broth are used clam juice I think he gets that a lot more flavor. Also instead of using onions are used to scallions just to make it a milder taste. And, I also gave it a good little shot of sherry! For some reason sherry brings out the flavor of the seafood. I do find it a little thin, so more like a seafood soup! For seafood are used cod, shrimp and scallops. I tossed in a little lobster meat just before serving.
