Instrucciones

1. Place a fine mesh strainer over a med bowl and strain the 2 cans of baby clams (keep the juice). Mince up the baby clams if you want.

2. In a dutch oven fry the bacon over med-high heat until cooked. Using a slotted spoon remove the bacon into a small bowl and set aside.

3. Add onion to pan and sauce until softened and translucent, about 5 mins. Reduce heat to low and add carrots, celery and flour, stirring constantly 3 mins to avoid lumps.

4. Add black pepper, thyme, reserved clam juices, chicken stock, diced potatoes and bay leaf. Stir then cover and bring to a boil.

5. Reduce heat to simmer and let cook until potatoes are tender about 15 mins.

6. Remove bay leaf and add cream. Allow chowder to simmer for an additional 10-20 mins until soup has thickened to an appropriate consistency.

7. Add in reserved clam meat and cook for an additional 2 to 4 mins. Remove from heat.

8. Serve chowder in bowls topped with the bacon.
