Cooking Green Chile Chicken and Corn Chowder on the Stove
Preparing Your Ingredients
For your 2 cups of pre-shredded chicken it is easiest to get a pre-cooked rotisserie chicken and shred the meat off of it. Not only is the chicken pre-cooked for you but it also is tender when you add it to your chowder. Or find pre-shredded chicken at your grocery store's deli. I find it is easier when you are in a hurry to use pre-shredded rotisserie chicken.
Dice up ½ a small onion. Usually, the small sweet onions add a nice flavor to this recipe.
Next peel and dice 2 medium potatoes. This can be any potato variation however if they are a harder potato it might take longer for them to tenderize when cooking the chowder.
Now that you have prepped these ingredients it is time to throw together the chowder.
Sautéing the Onion
In a medium pot sauté the onion until it becomes translucent.
Combining the Chicken, Corn, and Green Chiles
Next add in the shredded chicken, diced potatoes, 15 ounces chicken broth, 15 ounces creamed corn, 4 ounces diced green chilies, ½ cup frozen whole kernel corn, 3 cups half and half, and 2 tablespoons Chugwater Chili Green Chili Seasoning.
Stir together and simmer for about 40 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Stir occasionally.
Adding in the Shredded Cheese
Next, add in 2 cups shredded pepper jack or Monterey jack cheese and simmer until melted into the soup. If you like it spicier use the pepper jack or more mild use the Monterey jack.
