Steps:
- In a large Dutch-oven or stock pot set over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onion and red pepper, sauté until tender, then add the garlic. When the garlic is fragrant and translucent, sprinkle in the seasonings (salt, pepper, cumin, oregano and thyme) along with the flour. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until the flour becomes lightly golden in color (but not brown). Whisk in the milk and chicken broth. Add in the chipotle chilies, adobo sauce, hatch chilies and fire roasted tomatoes. Bring to a boil.
- Once the mixture is boiling, add the potatoes and corn, reduce to medium heat again. Simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the chopped chicken and cheese, stirring until the cheese is completely melted. Continue cooking for an additional 15 minutes. Garnish with cilantro, cheese and lime.

CHICKEN CHOWDER WITH CHIPOTLE
A spicy, cream, very satisfying soup that is very easy to make (despite the long list of ingredients!). It is from Cooking Light. Just as a precaution--remember to use only 1 chile from the can (however if you like it spicier, feel free to use another one!).

Tips:
- Use a variety of vegetables: Don't limit yourself to just potatoes and carrots. Try adding other vegetables like corn, celery, or bell peppers.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: If you add too much chicken or vegetables, the chowder will be too thick. Add them in batches if necessary.
- Simmer, don't boil: Bring the chowder to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for at least 30 minutes. This will help the flavors to meld and the chicken to become tender.
- Season to taste: Taste the chowder before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or chili powder.
- Serve with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for chicken chowder include sour cream, shredded cheese, crumbled bacon, or chopped green onions.
