SMOKED CHICKEN CORN CHOWDER RECIPE



Smoked Chicken Corn Chowder Recipe image

You can't go wrong with our Chicken Corn Chowder. Between the bacon, potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, and fresh corn, this is a recipe truly for soup lovers. Regular chowder makes a comforting cool weather meal, but this recipe gets a boost by adding cooked chicken. You can purchase rotisserie chicken or smoked chicken (without the sauce) from a local barbecue joint. For a twist, substitute grilled shrimp for the smoked chicken. Take full advantage of the abundance of fresh corn available at farmers' markets. The natural sweetness and versatility of corn add flavor to just about anything. This chowder is great for any season-use fresh corn in summertime or frozen in winter. We love this soup because it's packed with tender chicken and corn, and the Monterey Jack cheese provides a delightful flavor. The heavy cream cheese also gives it this rich, milky flavor, with the potatoes adding to its thickness. For more of a kick, leave the seeds in the jalapeño. This is just one of those classic dishes that screams comfort food.

ROASTED CORN CHOWDER



Roasted Corn Chowder image

Roasted fresh corn and potato chowder is hard to beat on a chilly day! For a twist, add just a few ounces of smoked salmon and have an incredible British Columbia-inspired smoked salmon corn chowder. Had this in a little cafe on a dock in Vancouver, BC while waiting for a sea plane to take me to the outer west coast of Vancouver Island for a late season salmon fishing trip. I spent several years playing around with it to recreate it. Don't know if I matched theirs exactly, but I have come up with this basic roasted corn chowder recipe that turns into a great smoked salmon chowder, too.

Time 1h55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 tablespoons butter, divided
3 cups fresh white corn kernels
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
1 pound bacon
1 large onion, chopped
3 cups chicken stock, or as needed
6 potatoes, diced
¼ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon dried celery flakes
½ teaspoon paprika
½ cup half-and-half
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup shredded Cheddar cheese, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Melt 1 tablespoon butter in an oven-proof skillet over medium heat; stir in corn and tarragon and cook, stirring occasionally, until corn begins to brown, about 5 minutes.
  • Place skillet with corn in the preheated oven; roast, stirring every 5 minutes, until lightly browned but not dry, about 20 minutes.

Stir corn, potatoes, parsley, garlic, celery, and paprika into onion mixture. Crumble bacon, reserving about 1/4 cup for garnish, and stir bacon into soup.

ANDOUILLE SAUSAGE AND CORN CHOWDER



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.
