INGREDIENTS
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
6 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth
1 pound potatoes - peeled and cubed
1 teaspoon dried dill weed
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon paprika
8 ounces smoked salmon, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1/4 cup white wine
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon hot sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper
1 cup half and half
DIRECTIONS
In a large stockpot over medium-high heat, combine the butter, olive
oil, onion, garlic, and celery. Cook 8 to 10 minutes, or until the
onions are transparent. Sprinkle flour over the mixture and stir well to
make a dry roux. Gradually add the chicken broth and stir until slightly
thickened. Stir in the potatoes, dill, tarragon, thyme, and paprika.
Reduce heat to medium, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
Stir in the salmon, wine, lemon juice, hot sauce, salt, and pepper.
Simmer over low heat, uncovered for 10 minutes.
Mix in the half-and-half and continue to simmer for 30 minutes, stirring
occasionally. Do not let the chowder boil after adding the
half-and-half. Serve hot.
