  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Cook Time: 10 minutes
  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Servings: 8
  • Calories: 213.9 per serving

Ingredients:

  • 6 slices of bacon
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 green pepper, diced
  • 1 can of corn kernels, drained
  • 1 can of potato soup
  • 2 cans of milk (use empty soup cans to measure)
  • Fresh chives, chopped
  • Fresh parsley, chopped
  • Fresh dill weed, chopped

Instructions:

  1. Cook the Bacon: In a large saucepan, cook the bacon over medium heat until it’s tender and crispy. This will usually take about 5-6 minutes. Remove the bacon from the pan and set it aside on a paper towel to drain excess grease.

  2. Saute the Vegetables: In the same saucepan with the bacon drippings, add the chopped onion and diced green pepper. Saute them until they become soft and translucent, which should take around 3-4 minutes.

  3. Combine Ingredients: To the sauteed vegetables, add the drained corn kernels and the can of potato soup. Then, fill the empty soup can with milk twice and add that to the saucepan as well. Stir everything together until well combined.

  4. Simmer: Allow the chowder to simmer gently for about 10 minutes, or until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.

  5. Add Herbs: Just before serving, stir in the freshly chopped chives, parsley, and dill weed. These herbs will add a burst of freshness and flavor to the chowder.

  6. Serve: Ladle the warm Cabin Corn Chowder into bowls and garnish with extra chopped herbs if desired. Pair it with some crusty bread or a simple salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
