Lame title to a blog post, I know. But, truly, I am sooo hungry. And the chicken just won't cook faster, no matter how hard I try. Are you curious as to what I'm cooking for dinner tonight? Well, here it is....
Creamy Spicy Corn Chowder with Chicken
2 slices bacon, sliced in 1 inch strips
1 med yellow onion, diced
1 jalapeno, seeded
1 russet potato, diced
1 small red pepper, diced
3 cups frozen corn kernels, thawed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 TBSP chopped fresh thyme leaves
2 cups milk
3 cups chicken broth
2 cups shredded rotisserie cooked chicken
Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish
1 lime, cut into wedges
In a large sauce pot over medium heat cook bacon until crispy and all fat has rendered out. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel lined plate. Drain off all by 1 tablespoon fat, add onion, jalapeno, potato, red pepper, corn, salt and pepper and saute for about 5 minutes. Add thyme.
In a blender, puree half the mixture and add back to the pan. Add milk, chicken broth, and chicken and let simmer for about 5 minutes.
Transfer to serving bowls. Garnish each bowl with cooked bacon, fresh cilantro and a lime wedge.
I got the recipe from www.foodnetwork.com and am gonna leave off the lime and I'll add some cheese to it LOL We're kinda cheesy at my house (in more ways than one HAHA).
