Restaurant style comfort food directly from Maine that is easy to make and wonderful to eat!! Any white fish such as haddock may be used in place of the cod.

👨‍🍳 Instructions

Place bacon strips in a large stockpot over medium-high heat.

Cook bacon until crisp, then remove to paper towels to drain.

Drain grease from the pot, reserving about 1 tablespoon.

Set heat to medium, and fry onions in the reserved bacon grease until tender, about 5 minutes.

Add potatoes, and fill pot with just enough water to cover them.

Bring to a boil, then cook until potatoes are almost tender, about 5 minutes.

Add fish pieces, evaporated milk, whole milk, and butter.

Bring to a boil, then simmer over low heat for 30 minutes.

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Ladle into bowls, and top with crumbled bacon pieces.
