Ingredients
- 3 cans clam 6.5 ounces each, chopped, in clam juice
- 1 bottle clam juice 8 ounces
- 6 trips Bacon chopped, thick-cut
- 1 tablespoon butter unsalted
- 1 medium yellow onion chopped
- 2 ribs celery finely chopped
- 2 teaspoons garlic minced
- ⅓ cup all-purpose flour 42 g
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 3 medium potato peeled and diced into ¼-inch cubes, about 3 cups cubed, about 1 1/4 pounds, Yukon gold variety
- ½ teaspoon parsley dried
- ½ teaspoon oregano dried
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 cup heavy cream
- parsley chopped for garnish, fresh
Instructions
- Into a measuring cup, drain the canned clam juice. Then, pour in the bottled juice. You should have a total of 2 ½ cups of clam juice. Set aside.
- To a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, add bacon. Cook until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon grease in the pot (discarding the rest).
- Add butter. Once melted, add onions and celery. Stir to combine and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
- Add flour. Stir to coat. Add chicken broth, clam juice, potatoes, parsley, oregano, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Stir to combine.
- Bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 12-13 minutes.
- Add heavy cream, chopped clams, and bacon (reserving a small amount of bacon for garnish). Stir to combine. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until everything is cooked through.
- Garnish with the remaining bacon and parsley. Serve warm.
