CHICKEN CORN CHOWDER

GREEN CHILE CHICKEN CORN CHOWDER



Green Chile Chicken Corn Chowder image

I bought a ton of Hatch green chiles in August and thought a soup/chowder would be a good way to use them in the winter. They were spicier than I expected so I had to use rice and corn in the soup to cut the spice level. My parents loved it so I passed it on to them, then the girls at work loved it so I passed the recipe on to them also. Hopefully, y'all will love it too. It's a nice comfort food. Serve topped with cheese.

  • Simmer the chowder gently: Bring the chowder to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to develop and the chowder to thicken.
  • Season to taste: Taste the chowder and adjust the seasonings as needed. Add more salt, pepper, or herbs if desired.
