Provided by Paige Grandjean

Time 35m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 medium (1 lb., 5 oz. total) ears fresh shucked yellow corn
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup chopped yellow onion (from 1 small onion)
2 garlic cloves, chopped (about 2 tsp.)
1 ¾ cups lower-sodium chicken broth
10 ounces (6 medium) baby red potatoes, cut into 1⁄2-inch pieces
1 teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
8 ounces medium-size peeled, deveined raw shrimp
2 tablespoons heavy cream
2 tablespoons sliced fresh chives

Steps:

  • Cut kernels from corncobs (about 2 ¼ cups); place in a bowl. Using the large holes on a box grater, scrape pulp and liquid (about ½ cup) from cobs into bowl with kernels. Discard cobs.
  • Heat butter in a large saucepan over medium-high. Add onion and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in chicken broth, potatoes, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are just tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Add corn mixture; stir until well combined.
  • Transfer 1 cup of the chowder to a blender. Secure lid on blender, and remove center piece to allow steam to escape. Place a clean towel over opening. Process until smooth, about 15 seconds. Stir mixture back into remaining chowder. Bring to a simmer over medium. Add shrimp, and cook, stirring occasionally, until opaque and cooked through, about 3 minutes. Stir in heavy cream. Ladle into 4 bowls. Sprinkle each serving with chives.
