SMOKED CHICKEN CORN CHOWDER RECIPE



Smoked Chicken Corn Chowder Recipe image

You can't go wrong with our Chicken Corn Chowder. Between the bacon, potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, and fresh corn, this is a recipe truly for soup lovers. Regular chowder makes a comforting cool weather meal, but this recipe gets a boost by adding cooked chicken. You can purchase rotisserie chicken or smoked chicken (without the sauce) from a local barbecue joint. For a twist, substitute grilled shrimp for the smoked chicken. Take full advantage of the abundance of fresh corn available at farmers' markets. The natural sweetness and versatility of corn add flavor to just about anything. This chowder is great for any season-use fresh corn in summertime or frozen in winter. We love this soup because it's packed with tender chicken and corn, and the Monterey Jack cheese provides a delightful flavor. The heavy cream cheese also gives it this rich, milky flavor, with the potatoes adding to its thickness. For more of a kick, leave the seeds in the jalapeño. This is just one of those classic dishes that screams comfort food.

This is a lighter chowder that's loaded with veggies. It still has the rich and creamy textures, but is healthier given the lack of heavy cream and the use of sweet potatoes.

This is a prize winning recipe in Cook's Country magazine (slightly modified). It is a delicious chowder with a twist...it has corn muffin mix as a thickening agent. The sweet potatoes also add something a little different from the usual chowder. An added bonus is that it goes together fairly quickly. This received rave reviews from my weekly soup night gang. Try this chowder--your tummy will thank you.

Categories     Soup/Stew     Chicken     Garlic     Onion     Potato     Tomato     Dinner     Corn     Fall     Jalapeño     Gourmet

Yield Makes about 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 medium onions, chopped (about 2 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 large russet (baking) potato
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 fresh jalapeñ:o chili, seeded and minced fine (wear rubber gloves)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 cups chicken broth
2 cups heavy cream
3 plum tomatoes, seeded and cut into 1/4-inch dice (about 1 cup)
2 cups fresh or frozen corn
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese (about 4 ounces)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaved parsley leaves
1/2 canned chipotle chili in adobo sauce*, minced fine (about 1 teaspoon)
1 1/2 whole boneless smoked chicken breasts**(about 1 pound), skin and fat removed and meat cut into 1/2-inch dice
*available at Hispanic markets and some specialty foods shops
**available at some butcher shops and specialty foods shops

Steps:

  • In a 6-quart heavy kettle cook the onions in oil over moderate heat stirring, until softened. Peel and cut potato into 1/4-inch dice. To kettle add potato, garlic, and jalapeño and cook stirring, 1 minute. Stir in flour, and cook over moderately low heat, stirring 2 minutes. Whisk in 2 cups broth and heavy cream and bring to a boil stirring. Add tomatoes, corn, Monterey Jack, parsley, chipotle, and chicken and simmer, stirring occasionally and adding enough of remaining cup broth to thin soup to desired consistency, 20 minutes, or until vegetables are tender. Season soup with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Use a whole chicken or chicken breasts for a rich, flavorful broth. If using a whole chicken, remove the skin and excess fat before cooking.
  • Smoke the chicken properly: Smoking the chicken adds a delicious smoky flavor to the chowder. If you don't have a smoker, you can also roast the chicken in the oven at 400°F for 1 hour, or until cooked through.
  • Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give the chowder the best flavor. If you don't have fresh vegetables on hand, you can use frozen or canned vegetables in a pinch.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: Overcooked vegetables will become mushy and lose their flavor. Cook the vegetables just until they are tender-crisp.
  • Season the chowder well: Season the chowder with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a splash of lemon juice or white wine for a bit of acidity.

Conclusion:

Smoked Chicken Sweet Potato Corn Chowder is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. The smoky flavor of the chicken and the sweetness of the potatoes and corn make this chowder a real treat. Serve it with a side of crusty bread or crackers for a complete meal.
