Instructions

  1. Cut salmon into 1-inch pieces.

  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Sauté half the salmon for 2 minutes until opaque, then remove. Melt the remaining butter and repeat with the second half of salmon.

  3. In a large stockpot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sauté shallots for 3 minutes until softened. Add broth and bring to a simmer.

  4. Reduce heat to medium-high. Add potatoes, partially cover, and simmer 12-15 minutes until tender.

  5. In a blender, combine 1 cup corn kernels, half-and-half, and 1/2 cup cooked potatoes; puree until smooth.

  6. Stir the pureed mixture and remaining corn kernels into the pot. Return to a gentle simmer for 2 minutes.

  7. Add the partially cooked salmon and dill; season with salt and pepper. Simmer for another 2 minutes until salmon is cooked through.

  8. Break salmon into smaller chunks. Adjust seasoning and serve hot with desired garnishes.
