Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 poblano peppers
¼ cup butter
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 (32 ounce) cartons chicken broth
2 cups diced roasted chicken breast
2 (11 ounce) cans whole kernel corn with peppers
2 (15 ounce) cans black beans
2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
2 tablespoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste
2 cups tortilla chips, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack at about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Cut the peppers in half from top to bottom; remove the stem, seeds, and ribs, then place the peppers cut-side-down onto the prepared baking sheet.
  • Cook under the preheated broiler until the skin of the peppers has blackened and blistered, about 5 minutes. Place the blackened peppers into a bowl, and tightly seal with plastic wrap. Allow the peppers to steam as they cool, about 20 minutes. Once cool, remove the skins and discard. Dice the roasted peppers.
  • While the peppers are cooling, melt the butter in a pot over medium heat. Whisk in the flour, and stir until the mixture becomes paste-like and light golden brown, about 5 minutes. Gradually whisk the chicken broth into the flour mixture, and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook and stir until the mixture is thick and smooth, about 10 minutes.
  • Stir in the diced peppers, diced chicken, corn, black beans, Cheddar cheese, and pepper jack cheese. Season with cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer, and simmer until the cheese has melted and the soup is hot, about 10 minutes. Serve sprinkled with tortilla chips.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your chowder will taste. Whenever possible, use fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're cooking the chicken and vegetables, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Simmer the chowder gently: Once the chowder is simmering, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer gently for at least 30 minutes. This will help the flavors to meld together and develop.
  • Serve the chowder hot: Cheesy chicken poblano chowder is best served hot. Ladle it into bowls and top with additional cheese, sour cream, and cilantro, if desired.
