Corn and Green Chile Chowder
This chowder carries a bit of heat, so use half of the
jalapeño if you are sensitive to spice.
Makes about 6 cups
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and finely
chopped
1
garlic clove, finely chopped
1 medium red pepper, finely chopped
1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper, divided
1 tablespoon unbleached, all-purpose flour
½ cup lager-style beer
1 can (4.5 ounces) chopped green chiles
3 cups corn kernels (cut from about 3 ears of
corn, or use frozen, thawed, corn kernels)
1 cup chicken broth, reduced sodium
1
⁄
3
cup heavy cream
1. Heat the butter in a 6-quart saucepan set over
medium-low heat. Once melted add the onion,
jalapeño and garlic, with ½ of the salt and ½ of
the pepper. Stir and sauté until fragrant, but
picking up no color. Add the red pepper and
sauté for 2 to 5 minutes, until softened. Stir in the
flour and stir for 1 to 2 minutes to be sure to cook
off the flour taste.
2. Add the beer, chiles, corn, broth and remaining
salt and pepper, and bring to a boil. Once the
liquid begins to boil, reduce heat and allow to
simmer for about 15 minutes, to blend flavors.
Stir in cream and allow to simmer, stirring
occasionally, for another 15 minutes, until
reduced slightly.
3. Remove about 2 cups of soup and transfer the
remaining to the blender jar. Run on Low to begin
blending, and then switch to High and run for
about 1 minute until puréed.
4. Stir in reserved chowder and taste, adjusting
seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately.
