SOUTHWESTERN BLACK BEAN AND CHICKEN CORN CHOWDER

Southwestern Black Bean and Chicken Corn Chowder image

A hearty stick-to-your-ribs soup that your family will enjoy. I like to use the meat from a grocery store rotisserie chicken to save time. If your kids don't like chunks of tomato in their soup (like mine) use a hand/stick blender to puree the diced tomatoes before adding.

This is a lovely chowder with great flavors, and it's quick and easy to make. It's a great way to stretch a small amount of flavourful meat a long way. I used turkey sausage, and it was terrific. Recipe courtesy of my latest favorite cookbook Spilling the Beans.

Tips:

Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables, such as corn and black beans, will give your chowder the best flavor. If you can't find fresh vegetables, frozen vegetables are a good substitute.
Don't overcook the vegetables: Overcooked vegetables will lose their flavor and texture. Cook them just until they are tender.
Use a good quality broth: The broth is the base of your chowder, so it's important to use a good quality broth. You can use chicken broth, vegetable broth, or a combination of the two.
Season the chowder to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You may also want to add a bit of cayenne pepper for a little heat.
Serve the chowder hot: Chowder is best served hot, so make sure to reheat it if you have leftovers.
