Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce to a simmer. Let it cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
4. Add Cream and Lobster:
Stir in the heavy cream and season with Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Add the lobster meat and let it gently heat through for 5–7 minutes, being careful not to overcook.
5. Adjust and Serve:
Taste the chowder and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Ladle into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color.
Tips:
Enhance the Flavor: Add a splash of sherry or white wine when sautéing the vegetables for extra depth.
Thicker Chowder: If you prefer a thicker chowder, simmer longer or add a bit more flour.
Seafood Variations: Mix in other seafood like shrimp or scallops for a more diverse chowder.
Bread Pairing: Serve with crusty bread or oyster crackers for the perfect accompaniment.
Enjoy this creamy, indulgent chowder—perfect for a cozy dinner or a special occasion!
