Throwback Thursday: Green Chile Chicken Corn Chowder

The title of this Throwback Thursday recipe may have some of your running for the door because it is a soup. Also, I know it may be hot where some of you are, but that doesn’t mean you have to cut out hot food! I know you will have a chilly night when you are craving a delicious soup and this recipe is going to hit the spot. It is a spicy, cheesy chicken corn chowder that is just the kind of heat you want in the summer time.

This soup is packed with green chiles, red peppers, onion, cheese, chicken and potatoes. If you are not one for spicy food you can simply just leave out the green chiles and cayenne pepper. This soup goes perfectly with the Ciabatta Bread from last Thursday’s throwback recipe. Dig in!

    Hi Jenny! I would love this chowder even it’s a hot day. In Asia, we eat spicy and hot food when the weather is hot (supposed to help cool down by sweating or something like that). Looks delicious!!! I love adding cheddar at the end. Nice and creamy!

    I would love to throwback a few bowls of that gorgeous chowder! It sounds like a wonderful way to use some of the fresh corn that is everywhere in the markets!

    I can have soup and chowder any time of the year, not just winter. In fact, it can take so little time, it’s worth turn the air conditioner down so the house cools and all you want is soup! This one looks fantastic.

    Whenever we visited my folks in Santa Fe, we always had to have one green chle stew meal. I think it’s the only hot soup I can eat when it’s hot outside. Love your addition of chicken sausage.
