Instructions
- Dust the salmon fillets with Cajun seasoning and sauté in hot oil.
- When cool, dice it up and set aside.
- Mix the melted butter and flour together to make a smooth paste, making a "raw roux".
- In a saucepan, simmer the onion, celery, garlic and thyme in the wine and broth until the onion is tender.
- Add half and half and bring to a simmer.
- Whisk in the roux and whisk until smooth and slightly thick.
- Add the cooked potatoes and salmon.

- If you want it spicier add Cajun seasoning to the chowder.
Notes
If you make this a second time and do like it spicier, add some Cajun seasoning into the initial simmering of the wine, broth and seasonings.
