  • 8oz cooked Wild Alaska Sockeye or King Salmon
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • ¾ cup chopped yellow onion
  • ½ cup chopped celery
  • 1 russet potato, peeled and chopped
  • 1 large carrot, diced
  • ½ cup frozen, thawed corn
  • 2 tsp minced garlic
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk or ½ cup whole milk
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • optional: chopped parsley, dill, or green onions as a garnish
