CHICKEN AND CORN CHOWDER



Chicken and Corn Chowder image

In-season corn is so sweet, it's the perfect ingredient for a creamy summer chowder. Make sure to use the back of your knife to scrape off all the starchy liquid from the cobs to get the most flavor of the naturally sweet corn in your chowder.

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 ears of corn, shucked
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 slices bacon, chopped
1 large onion, 3/4 chopped and 1/4 thinly sliced lengthwise
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/4 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, chopped
4 cloves garlic, 3 cloves chopped and 1 sliced
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
4 to 6 sprigs thyme
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
3/4 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Cut the kernels off the corn and scrape the cobs with the back of a knife to remove the liquid. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a dutch oven or other large pot over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring, until crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate with a slotted spoon; remove 2 tablespoons of the drippings and set aside.
  • Reduce the heat under the pot to medium and add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter, the chopped onion, corn and liquid, and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until the onion is tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add the potatoes and chopped garlic to the pot and season with the smoked paprika and thyme; cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add the chicken broth and 1 teaspoon salt; cover and bring to a boil. Uncover and simmer until the potatoes are tender, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Smash some of the potatoes with a fork to thicken the soup. Stir in the chicken and heavy cream and cook until the chicken is warmed through, about 3 minutes.
  • Heat the reserved bacon drippings in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onion and cook until browned, 3 minutes, adding the sliced garlic during the last 30 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon to the plate with the bacon. Divide the soup among bowls; top with the bacon, onion and garlic.

PERFECT CHICKEN CORN CHOWDER



Perfect Chicken Corn Chowder image

I've never had a better one. Been making this for years. Use a chablis, sauvignon blanc or any not-sweet similar white wine; it need not be a great wine but the wine DOES add that certain something. I've even been known to add a tiny splash of dry sherry at the finish. The soup is filling and delicious. Also freezes well. A vintage recipe, from my "olde" recipe file. I'll tell you how old it is: it calls for 17 oz. cans of creamed corn! I have no idea where the recipe came from originally!

Yield Makes 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

10 bacon slices, chopped
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
3 medium onions, chopped
2 cups chopped red bell peppers (about 2 large)
1/4 cup all purpose flour
9 cups low-salt chicken broth
4 cups 1/2-inch cubes peeled seeded butternut squash (cut from one 1 3/4-pound squash)
1 1/2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
2 16-ounce bags frozen corn kernels
1 cup whipping cream
4 cups diced skinned roast chicken
2 cups chopped green onions
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Cook bacon in large pot over medium-high heat until crisp. Using slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper towels to drain.
  • Pour off all but 1/4 cup drippings from pot. Add butter to pot; melt over medium-high heat. Add onions and 1 cup bell peppers. Sauté until onions are soft, about 10 minutes. Add flour; stir 2 minutes. Mix in broth, then squash, potatoes, and thyme; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer uncovered until squash and potatoes are tender, about 12 minutes. Add corn, cream, and 1 cup bell peppers. Simmer until corn is tender, about 10 minutes. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cool. Chill uncovered until cold, then cover and keep chilled. Bring to simmer before continuing.) Add chicken, 1 cup green onions, and 1/2 cup cilantro; simmer 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Ladle chowder into bowls; sprinkle with remaining 1 cup green onions and 2 tablespoons cilantro.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your chowder.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot. If you add too many ingredients at once, they won't cook evenly and the chowder will be watery.
  • Cook the vegetables until they are tender but still have a little bit of crunch. You don't want them to be mushy.
  • Season the chowder to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings until it tastes just the way you like it.
  • Serve the chowder hot, with a side of crusty bread or crackers.

Conclusion:

Chicken corn chowder is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
