CHICKEN AND POTATO CHOWDER



CHICKEN AND POTATO CHOWDER image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Chicken

Yield 7 cups

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (12 ounces total) , cut into cubes
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups homemade or low-sodium store-bought chicken stock
1/2 pound red potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 1/2 cups whole milk
Pinch of ground nutmeg
3/4 cup frozen corn kernels, thawed
3/4 cup frozen peas, thawed

Steps:

  • Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Add remaining tablespoon oil to same pan over medium-low heat. Add onion and garlic; season with salt. Cook, stirring often, 5 minutes. Sprinkle in flour; cook, stirring, 1 minute. Slowly stir in stock until incorporated; add potatoes. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Simmer until potatoes are tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in milk and nutmeg. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until thick, 3 to 5 minutes. Add reserved chicken, corn, and peas; simmer until chicken is cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

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 avoid scrambling later on.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your chowder will taste. Look for fresh, local produce and high-quality meat and seafood.
  • Don't skimp on the seasonings: Seasonings are what give chowder its flavor, so don't be afraid to use them generously. Common seasonings for chowder include salt, pepper, thyme, bay leaf, and parsley.
  • Cook the chowder slowly and gently: Chowder is a slow-cooked dish, so don't rush it. Cook it over low heat for at least 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the flavors have had time to meld.
  • If you're using canned chicken, be sure to rinse it well before adding it to the chowder. This will help to remove any excess salt and preservatives.
  • Serve the chowder hot with a side of crusty bread or crackers.

Conclusion:

Chicken and potato chowder is a hearty, comforting dish that's perfect for a cold night. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious chicken and potato chowder that your whole family will love.
