My savory Clam Chowder soup is the perfect spooky weeknight dinner for Halloween! Just dress it up with some black olive eyes and mouth to make a spooky face.<\/h2>\n

JUMP TO RECIPE<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n

First of all let me say I have been craving some clam chowder for weeks now, I was just waiting for some cooler weather to get here. My savory Clam Chowder soup is the perfect spooky weeknight dinner and is perfect for your spook-tacular Halloween too! Just add a some black olive eyes and mouth to make your own ghost or jack o \u2018lantern, crescent roll toppings can be a mummy or crumble up bacon for scabby looking zombies. While my savory clam chowder recipe is traditionally made with apple wood smoked bacon, you can easily omit this ingredient to make it a great Pescetarian meal too. It also holds beautifully covered\u00a0 on the stove top while you answer the door during trick or treat on Halloween night. So \u2018cue up a haunting good movie, light up your jack lanterns and get your candy bowls ready.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

For this recipe you will want to start by sauteing up your rough chopped onions, carrots, celery and garlic in 4 tbsp of butter for 5 minutes. If you are using bacon drippings, which adds more flavor, you will want to omit the half the butter and simply saute your bacon first, then utilize the bacon grease for this step. I personally bake my bacon in the oven on a rack.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Next, stir in your hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and dry spices cook for 1-2 minutes. Take 2 Tbls of luke warm water and whisk flour into a slurry, if to thick add 1 more Tbsp of water. Add the flour mixture into pot, followed by your chicken stock, half and half, drained clam juices (reserving the clams to add at the end), and add in a Bay leaf. Bring to a gentle boil add in your diced potatoes reduce to simmer for 20-25 minutes, until potatoes are fork tender.<\/p>\n
