Description

This hearty chowder is a favorite in my family, filling and flavorful, perfect for those cozy nights in. Serve it as a main meal with some crusty bread and perhaps a simple side salad. And remember, the cayenne pepper is optional, but I love the extra kick it gives! πŸ˜‹

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to gather for this delicious chowder:

Quantity Ingredient
1 Onion
1-2 Cloves Fresh Garlic
4 tablespoons Butter
2 cans (15 oz each) Whole Kernel Corn
4 Potatoes, peeled and diced
4 cups Half-and-Half (or milk)
1 Green Bell Pepper, diced
1 Red Bell Pepper, diced
3 slices Bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper (optional)
To Taste Salt and Black Pepper
Parmesan Cheese (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. SautΓ© Onion and Garlic:

    • In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
    • Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautΓ©ing for about 3 minutes until fragrant and tender.
  2. Add the Goodness:

    • Pour in the cream-style corn and the whole kernel corn (make sure to drain the cans of whole kernel corn first).
    • Toss in the peeled and diced potatoes, stirring everything together.
  3. Creamy Base:

    • Slowly pour in the half-and-half (or milk), stirring continuously to combine.
    • This creamy goodness will make your chowder rich and velvety.
  4. Bell Pepper Party:

    • Now, add in the diced green and red bell peppers, giving the chowder a burst of color and freshness.
  5. Season to Perfection:

    • Season the chowder with salt and black pepper to your liking.
    • If you’re feeling a bit adventurous, sprinkle in the cayenne pepper for that extra zing! 🌢️
  6. Simmer Away:

    • Let the chowder simmer gently for about 45 minutes.
    • Stir occasionally to make sure nothing sticks to the bottom of the pan.
  7. Garnish and Serve:

    • Once the potatoes are tender and the flavors have melded together beautifully, it’s time to serve!
    • Ladle the chowder into bowls and top each serving with a generous sprinkle of cooked, crumbled bacon.
    • For an added touch of decadence, finish it off with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese.
  8. Enjoy!

    • Serve this Delicious Corn, Potato and Bell Pepper Chowder piping hot.
    • It’s a complete meal on its own, but a side of crusty bread or a light salad would complement it wonderfully.

This recipe is a true crowd-pleaser, perfect for gatherings or simply a cozy night at home. The creamy texture, the sweetness of corn, the heartiness of potatoes, and the slight kick of cayenne all come together in a bowl of comfort.
