Andouille Sausage and Corn Chowder image

This is a slightly spicy, smoky, hearty corn chowder. The recipe was given to me by a dear friend many years ago and the original source is unknown. I have adapted it to suit my family's tastes. If you prefer a thicker chowder, you can stir in a can of creamed corn. Serve this with cornbread or a crusty French loaf for a lovely meal, enjoy!

Time 1h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup coarsely chopped onion
½ cup diced celery
¾ cup chopped green bell pepper
¾ cup chopped red bell pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 pound andouille sausage, diced
3 cups frozen corn kernels, thawed
2 bay leaves
2 teaspoons dried thyme
6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
3 Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 cup heavy cream
salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ cup chopped cilantro

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Cook and stir onion, celery, green bell pepper, and red bell pepper in the hot oil until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir garlic, cayenne pepper, and diced andouille sausage into the onion mixture; continue to cook and stir until the sausage is hot, 1 to 2 minutes more.
  • Fold corn kernels and bay leaves into the sausage mixture; season with thyme. Allow the mixture to simmer until the corn is warmed, about 1 minute.
  • Pour chicken broth into the pot; bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook at a simmer, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes.
  • Stir potatoes and heavy cream to the pot, place a cover on the pot, and continue cooking at a simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Season the chowder with salt and black pepper.
  • Remove and discard the bay leaves.
  • Garnish with cilantro to serve.

This chowder was so good! I used smoked sausage instead of andouille and it was still delicious. The corn was sweet and juicy and the broth was flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.
