Ingredients

1/4 cup green onion or chives or regular onion diced.

1 clove of garlic, minced or 1 tsp of garlic powder

2 tablespoons of butter

2- 10-3/4 oz. Cans of cream of potato soup (can be an inexpensive store brand)

2 cans of milk

1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper.

3 oz. of cream cheese. A

1- 15-1/2 can of undrained whole corn

2 cups of salmon, flaked

Directions
  • Saute 1/4 cup green onion or chives or regular onion diced.
  • 1 clove of garlic, minced or 1 tsp of garlic powder In 2 tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan.
  • Add 2 – 10 3/4 oz. Cans of cream of potato soup
  • Add 2 – 10 3/4 oz. Cans cans of milk
  • Add 1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper.
  • When warm, remove approximately 1 cup of mixture and blend that with 3 oz. of cream cheese.
  • Add back into soup mixture.
  • Then add 1- 15 1/2 can of undrained whole corn.
  • Last, add 2 cups of salmon, flaked.
Note

The onion, garlic, cayenne pepper and amount of salmon can be adjusted to taste. Also, I think dehydrated sour cream could be substituted for the cream cheese. However, it does work best with store-bought cream of potato soup.

  1. Hi, Sis!

    Your recipe sounds delicious, but I have a question. Which salmon do you prefer for the chowder? Fresh? Canned? Smoked? We have a great fish market in our town, so we have the availability of wonderful fresh and smoked salmon.

  2. Thank you, Sis! We’re using a lot of canned meats during this time of pandemic, and think the chowder would be perfect for the canned salmon. Might even toss in a little dill!
