Categories     30-Minute Meals

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 to 4 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups sweet Vidalia or yellow onions, peeled and diced small (about 1 medium/large onion)
1 cup carrots, peeled and diced small (about 2 large carrots)
1 cup celery, diced small (about 2 stalks)
4 garlic cloves, finely minced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
32 ounces (4 cups) low-sodium chicken broth
3 cups milk, or as needed (I use Silk Unsweetened Cashewmilk)
3 cups Russet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1/4-inch cubes (about 3 large potatoes)
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 teaspoon pepper, or to taste
pinch cayenne pepper, optional and to taste
2 cups cooked shredded rotisserie chicken (use storebought to save time)
3/4 cup corn (I used frozen and added it straight from the freezer)
8 ounces extra-sharp cheddar cheese (grate it yourself, pre-grated cheese in plastic bags is resistant to melting)
1/3 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, finely chopped

Steps:

  • To a large Dutch oven or stockpot, add the oil and heat over medium-high heat to warm.
  • Add the onion, carrots, celery, and sauté for about 7 to 9 minutes, or until vegetables begin to soften. Stir intermittently.
  • Add the garlic and sauté for another 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add the flour and whisk constantly until lightly browned, about 1 minute.
  • Add the chicken broth, milk, and whisk constantly until slightly thickened, about 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add potatoes, thyme, oregano, salt, pepper, optional cayenne, and bring to a boil. Allow chowder to boil fairly rapidly for about 15 minutes or until potatoes are fork-tender; stir intermittently. At any time while the chowder is boiling, if the overall liquid level is lower than you like and the chowder is too thick, adding a cup of extra milk is okay. At the end you will adjust the seasoning levels.
  • After potatoes are soft, add the chicken, corn, and boil for 1 to 2 minutes to warm the chicken and corn through.
  • Reduce the heat to low, add the cheese slowly, and stir continuously until melted and combined.
  • Add the parsley and stir to combine.
  • Taste chowder and add salt to taste. I added another teaspoon but this will vary based on how salty the brand of chicken broth used is, how salty the rotisserie chicken and cheese are, and personal preference. Make any necessary seasoning adjustments (i.e. more salt, pepper, herbs, etc.) and serve immediately.

CHICKEN AND CORN CHOWDER



Chicken and Corn Chowder image

In-season corn is so sweet, it's the perfect ingredient for a creamy summer chowder. Make sure to use the back of your knife to scrape off all the starchy liquid from the cobs to get the most flavor of the naturally sweet corn in your chowder.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 ears of corn, shucked
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 slices bacon, chopped
1 large onion, 3/4 chopped and 1/4 thinly sliced lengthwise
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/4 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, chopped
4 cloves garlic, 3 cloves chopped and 1 sliced
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
4 to 6 sprigs thyme
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
3/4 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Cut the kernels off the corn and scrape the cobs with the back of a knife to remove the liquid. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a dutch oven or other large pot over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring, until crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate with a slotted spoon; remove 2 tablespoons of the drippings and set aside.
  • Reduce the heat under the pot to medium and add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter, the chopped onion, corn and liquid, and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until the onion is tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add the potatoes and chopped garlic to the pot and season with the smoked paprika and thyme; cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add the chicken broth and 1 teaspoon salt; cover and bring to a boil. Uncover and simmer until the potatoes are tender, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Smash some of the potatoes with a fork to thicken the soup. Stir in the chicken and heavy cream and cook until the chicken is warmed through, about 3 minutes.
  • Heat the reserved bacon drippings in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onion and cook until browned, 3 minutes, adding the sliced garlic during the last 30 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon to the plate with the bacon. Divide the soup among bowls; top with the bacon, onion and garlic.
