Keto Clam Chowder - Low Carb

bacon, chopped

onion

garlic

salt

black pepper

celery root

clam juice

water

mascarpone cheese

butter

Cook the bacon in a large sauce pan over medium heat for 2 &#8211; 3 minutes, or until lightly browned but not crispy.

Add the onion, garlic, salt, pepper, and celery root, and saute for 2 &#8211; 3 minutes or until fragrant and the onions are turning translucent.

Add the water and all of the clam juice and simmer on low heat, covered, for 15 &#8211; 20 minutes, or until the celery root is tender.

Add the clams and mascarpone cheese, then stir until the mascarpone has melted and the broth is creamy.

Simmer on low, uncovered, for 3 minutes, or until the clams are just cooked through.  Do not boil.

Remove from the heat and add the butter, stirring until melted.

Taste and season with additional salt and pepper if needed.

This is really an excellent recipe! I will definitely make it again, but this time I will add some thyme (just needs that little bit of herb).

The clam chowder was so amazing. I love the mascarpone idea, well, because I love mascarpone! I haven't commented previously (sorry!), but I have loved your recipes.  So glad you share them.

This is amazing!  I have made this multiple times and have used the celery root each time.  I really like the added flavor it gives to the broth.  Sometimes its hard to find so when I do find it at a reasonable price, I buy extra, clean and prepare it and freeze it in the recipe portion.  I have found that the finished soup also freezes just fine.  I freeze it in single portion sizes so I can have this wonderful treat anytime I want. I did substitute homemade chicken bone broth for the water in the recipe and I think it added some depth of flavor.  Great recipe!

This was delicious. I had to make a few modifications:
 * replaced 3 cups celeriac with 3 cups mixed veg (celeriac, celery, fennel, turnip, mushrooms)
 * used homemade bone broth instead of water
 * clams were quite pricey, so I used two cans (instead of three) plus some chopped shrimp
 * added a splash of crab boil seasoning (amazing addition - has a spicy nutmeg flavour)

When I make it again I would use cream cheese over mascarpone. I found it wasn't worth double the price.

Thanks for the recipe!

Excellent.  Easy.  Delicious.  Thank you!  Being limited to what I have on hand because of all the drama in the world, I did have to make some subs.  Cream cheese for mascarpone, and radishes for celery root.  I always keep things like cans of baby clams in the pantry (thank goodness during these times!),  and this is definitely going to be on our regular rotation now :)  It went perfect with the ribeye we had last night!  Thanks for all you do!  Looking forward to your new book!

Wow, oh wow was this delicious!! Tastes incredible, would never even know it’s not the full carb version, that’s how good the celery root works in this recipe. Mellissa, it’s a real IBIH night- had the chowder with HOP bread garlic toasts and peach and blueberry slab pie for dessert. What a feast, thank you!!!

This was really really really great!  My husband said that it's better than "normal" clam chowder and I agree.  What I modified, I used 6 cans of clams and their juice in addition to the 8oz bottle of clam juice.  I added a bit of thyme.  I used beef broth instead of water.  I didn't have garlic so I used a shallot.  I love the recipes on this website, Thank you!

Have made fish and seafood cersions of this  and also subbed kohlrabi or cubed summer white turnips or could use daikon radish as well. Could also use regular swede or turnip/ rutabaga.

Straightforward recipe without a long grocery list of items.
However, would it hurt to cook the bacon and onion at the same time?  No matter how much I stirred after adding the onion, the onion seemed to always be on top of the bacon, not in the bacon grease where it could turn translucent.
Thank you for a low-carb alternative to 'authentic' chowder!

I made this recipe last night.  Took the advise of another comment and added Chicken broth instead of water.  Since I didn’t have mascarpone....I used 1 cup heavy whipping cream mixed with one package of Hollandaise sauce mix. I used canned clams and added about a teaspoon and a half of Penzy’s Seafood base.  I also chopped some carrots (because I need color) and chopped some radishes and parsnips to add to the mix.  This was delicious!  Husband did not realize that it did not have potatoes in it.

This rich and creamy keto seafood chowder recipe is a healthy comfort food meal. Make it with clams or with white fish. Either way, it&#039;s an easy low carb dinner recipe that takes less than 40 minutes, start to finish.
