Texas Country Club Corn Chowder image

The peppers in this soup give it just the right amount of spice, while the half & half and bacon give it just the right amount of richness. A creamy, comforting meal. The recipe is from Barton Creek Country Club in Austin, TX. I clipped it from the Austin-American Statesman many years ago.

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 small onion, diced
1 large celery rib, diced
1 large carrot, chopped
3/4 lb bacon, chopped
1 anaheim chilies or 1 red bell pepper
1 -2 fresh jalapeno pepper, diced
1 (10 ounce) box frozen corn
1/2 cup flour
2 large russet potatoes
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans chicken broth (or equivalent chicken stock)
1 quart half-and-half
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Peel and dice potatoes. Bring a pot of water to boil. Parboil potatoes by placing in boiling water for 5 minutes. Pour off water and set potatoes aside.
  • In a large pot, saute bacon until well done. Add onion, celery, carrot, peppers, and corn to bacon and bacon fat. Saute until tender.
  • Add flour to bacon and vegetables to make a roux. Stir until smooth and thickening. Add potatoes. Gradually add chicken broth and stir until smooth. Bring to a boil. Add half & half and simmer for 5 minutes. The starch from the potatoes helps thicken the soup, and the parboiled potatoes will finish cooking in the soup.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.

Overall, I thought this corn chowder was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This corn chowder is a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra spices next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my corn chowder turned out too watery. I think I might have added too much milk.
