Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

6 slices bacon (4 ounces)
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
1 medium carrot, sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds (halved lengthwise if large)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1/2 medium jalapeño, finely chopped, plus more to taste
1 teaspoon ground cumin
6 cups (48 ounces) homemade or store-bought low-sodium chicken or turkey broth
1 medium sweet potato (about 1 pound), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
Two 4-ounce cans mild diced green chiles, drained
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 dried bay leaves
4 cups shredded turkey or rotisserie chicken
10 ounces frozen corn, thawed
3/4 cup half-and-half, plus more to taste
Sliced scallions, for serving
Chopped parsley, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large pot over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain on a paper towel and crumble into small pieces and set aside, reserving the fat in the pot.
  • Pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat, return the pot to medium heat, and add onion, carrot, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes more. Add jalapeño and cumin and cook, stirring, 1 minute more.
  • Add broth, sweet potato, chiles, oregano, and bay leaves and bring to a simmer. Cook until sweet potato is tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the turkey or chicken and corn and cook until warmed through, 3 to 5 minutes. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and half-and-half. Continue to cook until just warmed through. Taste and adjust seasoning, thinning the chowder with another 1/4 cup half-and-half, if desired.

Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 potatoes, peeled and diced
2 smoked turkey legs
¼ cup butter
1 large onion, chopped
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 (32 ounce) carton chicken broth
1 (16 ounce) package frozen corn
1 quart light cream
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes into a pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two. Cut the meat from the turkey legs, discarding the bones and tendons. Chop the turkey meat and set aside.
  • Heat the butter in a soup pot over medium heat; cook the onion in the butter until translucent, about 8 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the butter and onion; stir constantly until the butter and flour form a paste. Allow the paste to fry for about 1 minute. Whisk in the chicken broth, potatoes, turkey meat, and corn; stir until the mixture comes to a low boil and thickens, about 5 minutes. With a potato masher, slightly mash the potatoes and vegetables until the potatoes look rounded off. Pour in the cream, bring soup back to a simmer, and allow to cook without boiling for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.

CREAMY TURKEY-CORN CHOWDER



Creamy Turkey-Corn Chowder image

This soup works well with cooked chicken in place of turkey. We like things super-spicy, you can omit the jalapeno and dried chili flakes if desired. I also add in some chili powder or curry powder (which ever I feel like at the time lol!) also but that is optional, you can use milk in place of half and half cream but I have to say it is not as good, or use both!
