Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups frozen sweet corn kernels
  • 1 pound cooked chicken (chopped)
  • 1/2 medium-sized yellow onion (finely diced)
  • 2 large Russet potatoes (peeled and cubed)
  • 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup plain all-purpose flour
  • Seasonings: garlic, Italian herbs, cayenne pepper

Instructions

  1. In a large soup pot over medium-high heat, sauté chopped cooked chicken until lightly browned (about 5 minutes).
  2. Add diced onion and chopped celery; sauté until tender (about 5 minutes).
  3. Sprinkle in flour and minced garlic; stir continuously for about 1 minute to form a roux.
  4. Gradually pour in the chicken broth while stirring to lift browned bits from the pot.
  5. Stir in heavy cream, corn, cubed potatoes, Italian seasoning, cayenne (if using), and most of the sautéed chicken.
  6. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer for 15–20 minutes until potatoes are fork-tender.
  7. Season with salt and pepper as desired before serving hot.
