Indulge in our irresistibly creamy corn chowder for a delicious and healthy meal.
Ingredients:
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1 leek, cleaned and chopped
  • 5 cups frozen corn
  • 3 1/2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 medium red sweet pepper, chopped
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 3 threads saffron (optional)
  • Snipped fresh chives and/or ground black pepper (optional)
Instructions:
  • Spray a 4- to 5-quart Dutch oven with nonstick cooking spray and heat over medium heat for about 1 minute. Add onion and leek, then cook for about 5 minutes until tender, stirring occasionally.
  • Stir in the corn and cook for approximately 5 minutes until softened, stirring occasionally. Pour in half of the chicken broth, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for about 20 minutes until the corn is very tender. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
  • Blend half of the corn mixture until smooth, then stir it back into the Dutch oven.
  • Pour in the rest of the broth along with the sweet pepper, 1/8 teaspoon black pepper, cayenne pepper, and optional saffron. Heat until warmed through. Optionally, top with chopped fresh chives and a sprinkle of more black pepper before serving.
