1/4 cup cooked bacon pieces
3/4 tsp. dried dill weed or fresh dill
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 jar diced pimento, drained (2oz.)
Directions:
Thaw fish if frozen. Rinse and drain. Cut fish into 1 inch pieces. Set aside. Meanwhile, in large saucepan, combine potatoes and water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Cover and simmer about 5 minutes or until tender. Stir in evaporated milk, condensed soup, bacon, dill weed and pepper. Return to boil. Add fish and pimento; reduce heat.
Cover and simmer for 3-5 minutes more or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. To serve, ladle into serving bowls. If desired, sprinkle with additional fresh dill.
At our local grocery store when they have a special on fresh Halibut, and it says "whole" once the fish is cut up, the backbone, and tail pieces are discarded to be thrown away. This makes the best soup stock and is meaty enough to make a wonderful chowder. Ask if you could have some. They did it the last two times I have seen the fish on sale. I got two pots of halibut chowder stock and it was free! This also works for salmon.
