Creamy High-Protein Seafood & Dill Chowder Pasta (40g Protein)

Published: 8/10/2026

Inspired by traditional Nordic seafood chowders, this pasta uses blended cottage cheese to create a thick, high-protein sauce that mimics a heavy roux-based cream without the added fat.

Ingredients (4 servings)

• 1 lb (450 g) mixed seafood (shrimp, scallops, cod)
• 8 oz (225 g) protein pasta
• 1 cup (240 g) cottage cheese, blended until smooth
• 1/2 cup (120 ml) seafood broth
• 1 tbsp (3 g) fresh dill, chopped
• 1 tsp (3 g) lemon pepper

Instructions

1. Cook the pasta until al dente.
2. In a large pan, sauté the seafood mix until the cod is opaque and the shrimp are pink.
3. Lower the heat to medium-low. Stir in the blended cottage cheese and seafood broth.
4. Add the lemon pepper and fresh dill.
5. Toss with the pasta until the sauce is velvety and clings to the noodles.

Pro Tips

• Silky Sauce: Blend the cottage cheese at high speed for at least 60 seconds to ensure a completely smooth, professional sauce texture.
