Chicken Corn Chowder With Bacon Recipes

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.

Steps:

• 1 - Place 2-3 large boneless chicken breasts in a large stock pot. Add enough water to cover chicken by about 1 inch above the meat. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a slow simmer until tender (45 mins - 1hr should suffice). Remove chicken & let cool. Once cool, medium dice chicken and set aside. Measure your remaining liquid from the pot in a measuring cup. How much liquid you have remaining depends on various things. I usually have around 2 - 3 cups of broth remaining. Add additional chicken stock to what you have to equal a total of 8 cups of liquid (You can use bouillon cubes or chicken base to make up the remaining stock if you'd like).
• 2 - Medium dice 1 large sweet white onion. Finely dice 3 cloves of garlic. On low to medium heat saute onions until translucent in color (do NOT brown), then add garlic & cook 1-2 additional minutes. Set aside.
• 3 - Peel & medium dice 8-10 potatoes of your choice. Must equal 8 cups of potatoes total.
• 4 - In your stock pot you should have 8 cups of stock waiting. Now add the 8 cups of diced potatoes, diced bacon, diced chicken, seasoning salt, white pepper & cayenne. Bring to a boil then reduce to a medium simmer until potatoes are tender.
• 5 - Once your potatoes are tender, mash up about 1/3-1/2 in the pot to help thicken the soup and to give contrast in texture. Now you can add the frozen or fresh (precooked) corn.
• 6 - Next add 2 - 8oz packages of room temperature cream cheese to soup. Room temp is very important in preventing curdling! Keep soup on low heat (stirring often) until all the cream cheese has melted. Taste test to make sure your seasonings are how you like them.
• 7 - Garnish the top of each bowl you serve with a bit of shredded sharp cheddar (orange type works nicely for color contrast but not mandatory), some of the finely chopped crispy bacon bits you have set aside & a bit of small diced green onion.
• **If you'd like a thicker soup you may use a roux or a slurry made from cornstarch & water.
• *** Please take note: creole seasoning is not Cajun seasoning! I prefer Tony Chacheres, Zatarains, or Paul Prudhomme's Creole seasoning salts.
• **** Delicious served in a warm bread bowl!
