Ingredients
Land O Lakes, Salted Butter, 1 Tbspwhite flour, 1 tbspMilk, 2%, 2 cupYellow Sweet Corn, Frozen, 2 cup kernelsPotato, raw, 1 cup dicedChicken Broth, .25 cupChicken Breast, no skin, 6.9 ounces, chunked upChicken Broth, 2 cupOnions, raw, .25 cup, chopped (I actually used dry onion flakes and rehydrated them in the .25 cup broth, didn't have onion in the house)salt, pepper, thyme
Directions
Ok. While the butter was melting, I let the onion soak up the 1/4 cup chicken broth and added them to the pan after about 10 minutes. In a seperate pan, I quick sauteed the chicken with salt, pepper and thyme (non stick pan, little 0-calorie spray). When the onions were happy in the butter I stirred in the flour until it was smooth. Then, added the corn, potatoes and 2 cups chicken broth. When the chicken was done, I threw it all in. I brought it all up to a boil, lowered it to a simmer, and let it go for 20 minutes - covered. I added the milk, brought it back up to a boil, and it was good to go. I stirred fairly often to make sure nothing was stuck to the bottom of the pan. Added just a bit of salt and pepper when it was served.

    This was delicious! I added a few things: some celery, carrots, and sauteed them before adding to the pot. I also put in a bit of cornstarch and cold water to thicken the broth a bit. But, this was fabulous! I loved it! - 3/21/10

    Until now I had not had Chicken Corn Chowder, but my husband had. In an effort to try to find foods I can make for him I tried this recipe. We both like it. He requested more potatoes in it, but liked it this way too. I did use an arrowroot slurry to thicken it just a bit. Turned out wonderful. Than - 11/18/14
