Manhattan Clam Chowder Recipe



I typically serve this chowder with a tossed salad and hot rolls. It's easy to make and tastes wonderful on a cold winter evening. My family's enjoyed it for over 30 years.


    8 Servings
    Prep: 10 min.
    Cook: 40 min.


Ingredients

    1 cup chopped onion
    2/3 cup chopped celery
    2 teaspoons minced green pepper
    1 garlic clove, minced
    2 tablespoons butter
    2 cups hot water
    1 cup cubed peeled potatoes
    1 can (28 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
    2 cans (6-1/2 ounces each) minced clams, undrained
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
    1/4 teaspoon pepper
    Dash cayenne pepper
    2 teaspoons minced fresh parsley
