Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 slices Bacon Chopped
- 1 Onion Small, Diced
- 2 Garlic Cloves Minced
- 2 Potatoes Medium, Peeled And Diced
- 3 cup Corn Kernels Fresh Or Frozen
- 2 cup Chicken Or
- Vegetable Broth
- 1 cup Whole Milk
- 1/2 cup Heavy Cream
- 1 tsp Dried Thyme
- Salt To Taste
- Pepper To Taste
- Fresh Parsley Chopped, For Garnish (Optional)
Instructions
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the pot and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate.
- In the same pot, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
- Add the diced potatoes and corn kernels to the pot. Stir well to combine with the onion and garlic.
- Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth, ensuring the potatoes and corn are fully covered. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
- Using an immersion blender or regular blender, puree about half of the soup until smooth. This step will help thicken the chowder while still leaving some texture.
- Return the blended soup to the pot. Stir in the whole milk, heavy cream, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook over low heat for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Taste the chowder and adjust the seasoning if needed.
- Ladle the Corn Chowder into bowls and garnish with the crispy bacon and chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
- Serve the Corn Chowder hot and savor its creamy and comforting flavors!
