After eating a coconut soup at a Thai restaurant, I added coconut milk in my fish chowder recipe. The fresh, simple ingredients allow the seafood to shine. —Michalene Baskett, Decatur, Georgia

This recipe sounded weird but Taste of Home contest winners haven't let me down yet, so I tried it! I am glad I did! This was delish! It's warm and filling but with a tropical zest- a very pleasant combination of flavors. I will be making this soup again!
