Ingredients

  • 8 slices bacon diced into 1/2" thick pieces
  • ½ cup onion diced (we prefer ours diced really small)
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups potatoes diced and peeled
  • 2 14.5 ounce cans sweet creamed corn
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a large soup pot over medium-high heat, cook diced bacon until it starts to get slightly crispy. Remove from heat and drain grease.
  • Return to heat and add onion. Cook until the onion starts to become tender.
  • Add broth, potatoes, and creamed corn then bring chowder to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and let it simmer for 12-15 minutes (or just until potatoes are tender).
  • Add salt and pepper to taste, serve warm.

Notes

*You could substitute some of the chicken broth for milk or cream if you want a creamier soup.
