Cajun Corn Chowder image

I used to work at an Old Country Buffet restaurant and this is my version of their Corn Chowder. The cheez whiz really is the secret ingredient. This recipe makes a lot of soup, but I have never been able to make less.

Time 1h

Yield 12-16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion, chopped
3 tablespoons flour
1 -1 1/2 cup chicken broth
1 cup Cheez Whiz
4 -6 par cooked cubed potatoes (reserve 1 cup of potato water)
2 cups cubed cooked ham
1 (14 ounce) can canned corn niblets, with liquid
2 (14 ounce) cans creamed corn
4 cups milk
1/2 lb tubetti or 1/2 lb elbow macaroni
cajun spices

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in the bottom of at least a 12 quart stock pot.
  • Add onion and cook until translucent.
  • Add flour to make a roux and cook for 3 minutes.
  • Add chicken stock, mix until smooth.
  • Add cheez whiz, stir until smooth.
  • Add the potatoes, potato water, ham, both kinds of corn, the milk and the raw macaroni.
  • Be sure to stir so that the noodles don't stick to the bottom and burn.
  • When noodles are cooked and soup is nice and thick, (add more milk or chicken stock if it thickens too much) add cajun spices to your liking.
