Ingredients:

• 1 lb salmon fillet
• 1 tsp mesquite seasoning
• 1 stick butter (1/2 cup)
• 1 1/2 cup finely chopped thawed and drained frozen spinach
• 3 Tbsp flour
• 1 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

• 1 tsp paprika
• 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

Method

Sprinkle salmon with mesquite seasoning; grill skin side down until flesh flakes easily. Flake the salmon off the skin. In a large pot melt butter. Add salmon chunks, garlic and spinach. Cook for a few minutes. Add flour, stirring to make a paste. Add cream and chicken stock; stir and bring to a boil. Add milk, cheese, and remaining ingredients; stir and simmer until heated through and cheese melts. Serve with crackers, if desired.

Notes: This is a rich and creamy soup; great for get-togethers on a cold night.
