Cuisine: American
Serves: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 2 cups corn
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 potatoes, diced
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Begin by preparing all your ingredients. Shred the cooked chicken and set it aside. Chop the onion and dice the potatoes into small cubes. Measure out the corn, chicken broth, heavy cream, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
- Add the diced potatoes to the pot and stir well to combine with the onions. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the potatoes to soften slightly.
- Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cover the pot. Let it cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
- Stir in the shredded chicken, corn, heavy cream, and chili powder. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.
- Allow the chowder to simmer for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will help the flavors meld together and the chowder to thicken slightly.
- Season the chowder with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning according to your preference.
- Once the chowder is heated through and has reached your desired consistency, remove it from the heat. Let it sit for a couple of minutes before serving.
- Serve the Kickin Chicken Corn Chowder hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired, and enjoy!
Tips
- • For the most tender potatoes, cut them into uniform small cubes to ensure even cooking • Use rotisserie chicken for an even quicker preparation time • If you prefer extra heat, add a dash of cayenne pepper or some diced jalapeños • For a richer flavor, consider using half-and-half instead of heavy cream • Let the chowder rest for 5 minutes after cooking to allow flavors to fully develop • Garnish with fresh chives, crispy bacon bits, or shredded cheese for added texture • This chowder freezes beautifully - make a double batch and save some for later!
