This Southwest Chicken Corn Chowder recipe is an easy-to-prepare mid-week meal inspired by our recent trip to Park City, Utah for the holidays!

Happy New Year! We just came back from an amazing trip to Park City, Utah. If you have never been, it’s a mountainous ski town with an elevation of almost 7,000 feet above sea level. What did that mean for us? A very white Christmas, with weather mostly in the teens and twenties. My children had never experienced snow before, so it was definitely a new adventure for them. One thing I came to really appreciate was warmth – fuzzy socks, cozy sweaters, hot chocolate, coffee drinks, and warm bowls of comfort food. We tried a few new dishes while there, like wild game chili and southwest corn chowder. Inspired by these flavors, I created a new recipe for Southwest Chicken Corn Chowder prepared with the best meat grinders. This is a better-for-you version, which uses tortillas as a thickener instead of butter or cream. This recipe serves four.

Southwest Chicken Corn Chowder Ingredients:

  • 6 ears of fresh corn
  • 1 quart Imagine® Free Range Chicken Broth
  • 1 bell pepper
  • 1 medium onion
  • 2 jalapeños
  • 2 t chili powder
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 cups of pre-cooked rotisserie chicken
  • 2 corn tortillas
  • Garden of Eatin’® Blue Corn Tortilla Chips
  • Optional toppings: sliced avocado, lime wedges, chopped cilantro, minced red bell pepper, sour cream, queso fresco, hot sauce, salsa
  • salt + pepper, to taste

Southwest Chicken Corn Chowder Directions:

Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F and begin gathering your ingredients. I headed to Walmart to purchase everything I needed for this recipe, including the chicken broth, tortilla chips, and fresh produce. To prepare your ingredients, remove the corn husks, remove the exterior layer of the onion and cut it in half, cut the pepper in half and remove the top and seeds, and cut the jalapeño in half {I leave the seeds for the added heat}. Coat the vegetables in olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and place them on a baking sheet for about 30 minutes to roast them until skin on the peppers browns, the onion begins to turn translucent, and the corn begins to char.

When the vegetables are roasted, remove from the oven and allow to cool until you can handle the corn. At that point, place each corn one at a time in a bowl. Hold it upright with one hand, and guide your knife down the side of the cob to cut the corn off. Place the roasted pepper, jalapeños, onion, corn, and corn tortillas in a blender with two cups of the Imagine® Free Range Chicken Broth and blend until you have a smooth puree. The corn tortillas are a great way to thicken your soup without adding heavy ingredients like butter or cream {Hello, healthy New Years Resolutions!}

Pour the puree from the blender through a mesh sieve to remove any lumps and pour into a large pot on the stove on a medium heat. Add the remaining Imagine® Free Range Chicken Broth, chili powder, salt + pepper, and simmer about 10 minutes so the chowder thickens from the pureed tortilla. Meanwhile prep the ingredients you will add to your chowder. I purchased a whole rotisserie chicken and shredded the breast meat. I love using pre-cooked rotisserie chickens in recipes like this – They are great for mid-week meals!

To complete my bowl of Southwest Chicken Corn Chowder, I added the shredded chicken, crumbled queso fresco, diced avocado, a little roasted corn I set aside, finely diced red peppers, a wedge of lime for a pop of acid, and several blue tortilla chips for crunch. Garden of Eatin’® Blue Corn Tortilla Chips are non-GMO and free of artificial flavors, colors, and preservatives. I just love the variety of textures in this chowder!
