Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 cups frozen corn
  • 1 cup diced potatoes
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  2. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add the chicken, corn, and potatoes. Reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
  3. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to create a roux.
  4. Gradually whisk the roux into the chowder, stirring until thickened. Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Simmer for another 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  6. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs and shred the meat after cooking. You can also add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little heat.
