Smoked Salmon and Chipotle Chowder
My wonderful mother in law sent me some delicious gourmet smoked salmon and some recipes to use it in. I chose this one as the weather has started to cool down a bit and I thought it would be perfect for a nice, warm dinner. Of course, it goes perfectly with some hot rolls. The chowder is very simple, but packed with so much flavor! Everything combines just beautifully. Of course, to my liking, it's also spicy. Make sure to remove the seeds from the chipotle pepper, otherwise your tongue will literally be on fire! Enjoy!
