Looks good enough for breakfast with 2 or 3 eggs over medium and some biscuits.

You have a decent recipe for this? 

I was just winging it, but my wife really liked it so I wrote it up this morning. 
 

Seafood Chowder

 by John

This is for a smaller batch.

Ingredients
2 tablespoons oil
1 tablespoon butter
½ cup minced onion
1 medium carrot, diced
2 cups diced potatoes
Pinch salt
¼ teaspoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon flour
1 bottle clam juice
1 tablespoon sherry
1 cup water
1 teaspoon chicken base
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon dried parsley
½ cup half and half
2 cups seafood pieces, lightly salted

Directions
1. Place oil and butter into a pot. Melt butter and add carrots, onions, a pinch of salt and thyme. Cook on low heat until onions turn translucent, approximately 5 minutes. 
2. Add flour and stir in until well combined. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes.
3. Stir in clam juice, sherry, water, chicken base, black pepper and parsley. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer until potatoes and carrots are soft, approximately 15 minutes. 
4. While soup simmers, cut seafood into pieces, place on a plate and lightly salt.
5. When vegetables are soft, add half and half, seafood and any juices. Bring back to a simmer, cover and turn off heat. Let seafood cook until just done, approximately 5 to 8 minutes.

Plated (bowled?) pic. We ate good. Homemade brownies from Erin are in the oven now.

Thanks - been looking for something to do with stripers, that might work.

Cajun itch not fully scratched, I made me some gumbo. Shrimp, chicken and andouille. My old favorite andouille (Richard's) isn't carried anymore, so I tried a new one they sell from behind the counter. Kirsch or something close. Kind of a hard sausage. Very good, but like the Richard's better.

For tomorrow.  Everybody knows meat loaf is better on the 2nd day.  So those babies are resting overnight.

           We have two racks of baby back ribs getting happy in seasonings and will go on the pellet grill in the Am early.
