Recipes FAQ

Can I use frozen corn instead of canned corn?

Yes, you can use frozen corn instead of canned corn. Just make sure to thaw the corn before adding it to the soup.

Can I use milk instead of heavy cream?

You can use milk instead of heavy cream, but the chowder will not be as creamy. You can also use half-and-half or evaporated milk as a substitute.

Can I make this recipe in advance?

Yes, you can make this recipe in advance and reheat it when you are ready to serve. Just keep in mind that the chowder will thicken as it sits, so you may need to add more broth or milk when reheating.

Recipe Tips

  • To save time, you can use rotisserie chicken instead of cooking your own chicken.
  • If you want a spicier chowder, you can add diced jalapenos or red pepper flakes.
  • If you prefer a smoother chowder, you can use an immersion blender to puree some of the potatoes before adding the chicken and corn.
