My Chicken Corn Chowder is absolutely BURSTING with flavor and texture. It's perfectly creamy without being too heavy--perfect for using up that summer corn! Plus, you can make enough for the whole family in less than an hour.

Recipe: https://sugarspunrun.com/chicken-corn...

Ingredients
6 strips uncooked bacon, cut into pieces
3 Tablespoons unsalted butter (42g)
1 medium yellow onion, diced (about 1 cup/140g)
1 red pepper, diced (about 1 cup/140g)
1 Tablespoon diced jalapeno (seeds and ribs removed)
1 ½ Tablespoons minced garlic
¼ cup all-purpose flour (30g)
1 teaspoon table salt (plus more as needed/to taste)
¾ teaspoon ground black pepper
¾ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon dry ground mustard
4 cups chicken broth (946ml)
1 cup water (or use another cup/236ml of chicken broth) (236ml)
1 cup whole milk (236ml)
1 cup heavy cream (236ml)
1 lb Gold potatoes diced into 1” cubes (you do not need to peel, but do remove any shoots)
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast or mix of breast and thighs (raw) (453g)
2 ½ cups sweet corn, fresh, frozen, or canned (if frozen no need to thaw, if canned drain before using) (275g)
Desired toppings. We enjoy this chicken corn chowder plain but also like corn chips, Fritos, or crackers, scallions/green onions,  additional jalapeno, cilantro, shredded cheddar cheese, and more!

Instructions
00:00 Introduction
00:18 Place bacon pieces in a large pot or Dutch oven. Turn heat to medium and cook until bacon is crisp. Remove to a paper towel lined plate and set aside.
00:44 Drain all but approximately 2 Tablespoons of bacon grease (you can eyeball it, no need to be exact! I like to use a ladle and ladle out the excess and pour it into a can to solidify before disposing of it).
01:11 Add butter to the pot with the remaining bacon grease and cook until butter is melted.
01:21 Add diced onion, red pepper, and jalapeno and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened (about 5 minutes).
01:43 Add garlic and cook until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
01:52 Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir until it’s fully absorbed. Cook another 30 seconds longer to lightly toast the flour.
02:05 Slowly whisk in chicken broth until completely combined.
02:26 Add water, milk, cream, potatoes, chicken breast, and corn.
03:05 Stir in salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and ground mustard.
03:31 Bring mixture to a boil and cook until the potatoes are tender and the chicken is cooked through.
03:43 Once chicken is cooked through, remove to a plate and shred or dice. Set aside and keep warm (I usually cover with foil).
04:08 Use an immersion blender to puree approximately half of the soup (see note if you do not have an immersion blender).
05:10 After pureeing, return chicken to the pot. Stir reserved bacon back into the pot (or to preserve its crispness, serve soup topped with bacon crumbles, but don’t skip the bacon entirely, it adds so much flavor!).  Taste-test the soup, adding more salt/pepper as needed (any soup that tastes a bit bland almost always needs a few shakes more salt!)
05:30 Serve warm with desired toppings and enjoy!

Notes
Bacon
The bacon adds a beautiful depth of flavor to the chowder that you can’t really get without it, but if you must omit the bacon use 5 Tablespoons of butter instead of the 3 listed. No other changes needed.

Potatoes
May substitute russet potatoes instead but I recommend peeling them before using.

Chicken
You may substitute a pound of precooked shredded or diced chicken instead! After pureeing the soup, add it to the pot and make sure it is warmed through before serving.

Blender
If you don’t have an immersion blender, you can transfer half of the soup to a blender in batches and puree that way. Alternatively you can use a potato masher to try and mash the soup though it won’t be as smooth/creamy this way.

Storing/Freezing
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. I generally do not recommend freezing soups that contain cream as the dairy may separate, making the consistency and texture not as smooth as it ought to be.
