This Chicken Corn Chowder recipe has juicy chicken, potatoes, and corn in the most flavorful, seasoned broth! It’s garnished with bacon and green onions and is loaded with flavor! You can make this with fresh or leftover/rotisserie chicken!
This Chicken Corn Chowder is out of this world delicious, it’s definitely earned a spot on our favorites list!
Cooking up some crispy bacon in the soup pot gets things off to a super flavorful start, and the drippings from the bacon are used to make a flavorful roux which thickens this chowder up nicely.
The combination of seasonings puts it over the top, along with a combination of jalapeno and red bell peppers, juicy chicken, golden potatoes, sweet corn, and a garnish of green onions and chopped bacon.
My favorite part is that it’s not too rich– it’s just right. I can’t wait for you to try it!
