Mexican Chicken Corn Chowder

MAKES: 9 cups

PREP: 5 Min

COOK TIME: 15 Min

Be sure to wear your stretchy pants for this Mexican Chicken Corn Chowder. You'll need the wiggle room when slurping down this quick soup.

What You'll Need

3 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 clove garlic, minced
4 cups chopped cooked chicken
1 cup chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 cups half-and-half
2 cups frozen corn, thawed
1 (4.5-ounce) can chopped green chilies
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack cheese with peppers

What to Do

Melt butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Saute onion and garlic 3 minutes or until tender.
Add chicken, broth, and cumin. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 3 minutes.
Add half-and-half, corn, chilies, and cheese. Cook over low heat until thoroughly heated. Serve immediately.

Notes

Save time by buying precooked chicken-deli-roasted, frozen, or fresh. I like to use fresh chicken breast chunks that have been oven-roasted. You can find them in the meat department of your local supermarket.
