List of Ingredients




2 large ears of corn, shucked
1 slice uncooked bacon, diced
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
1 sprig fresh thyme
1 - bay leaf
1 1/2 cups clam juice or fish stock
6 small red potatoes
1 pound crab meat
2 cups reduced fat (2%) milk
1 - red pepper, diced
1 teaspoon chopped, fresh dill


Recipe



1 Preheat the grill or broiler.
2 Grill or broil the corn until it turns golden brown. Set aside to cool.
3 Put the bacon in a soup pot and heat over low heat. Add the onion, celery, thyme and bay leaf, turn the heat up to medium, and cook until the vegetables are soft, about 10 minutes.
4 Meanwhile, slice the corn kernels from the cob.
5 Dice the potatoes and add them to the soup pot with the clam juice. Simmer until the potatoes are just tender, about 10 minutes. Add the milk, peppers, crab and dill and cook until the crab is just heated through. Remove the thyme and bay leaf. Adjust the salt and pepper and serve.
