Brrrr… it sure is chilly here in Toronto right now!

Snow is on the ground, the wind is blowing… and I just want to curl up and in a fluffy blanket with my son and keep as cozy as possible. 😀

For those times when you're feeling the chill of the cold weather, or you just want to get a little extra cozy like I do, my recipe for Chunky Chicken and Corn Chowder is really going to hit the spot! 😀

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb smoked bacon, chopped, cooked crisp and set aside on paper towel (while preparing the rest of the recipe)
  • 3 chicken breasts, cooked and cut into chunks (this works out to about 4 cups of chicken)
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 4 ribs celery, chopped
  • 2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 1 cup onion, chopped
  • pinch of salt
  • 5 potatoes, peeled and cubed

  • 6 cups chicken stock
  • 3 tbsp all purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder

  • 1/4 tsp ground white pepper
  • 1 (14 oz) can creamed corn
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 3 green onions, chopped

  2. Into the butter, add the celery, carrots and onions. Add pinch of salt. Cook for about 5 minutes until softened.
  3. Add corn, potatoes and chopped garlic, stir and cook for 5 minutes.
  4. Reduce heat and into the pot sprinkle the flour, cumin, garlic powder, paprika and white pepper. Stir so that the seasonings and flour touch everything. Cook this for about 2 minutes while stirring gently.
