Chicken and Corn Chowder






Chicken and Corn Chowder








I play with ingredients in my pantry instead of running to the store when I do not know what to eat. This corn soup was one of my experiences.

  • 1 (32-ounce) carton chicken broth
  • 2 medium red potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • meat from 1 rotisserie chicken, skin removed
  • 1 (11-ounce) pacakge frozen corn, defrosted

Instructions

First, In a Dutch oven, heat the butter until it is melted. Add the onion, red pepper and jalapeno and cook until tender, about 4 to 5 minutes.
