Ingredients

• 2 cups Chicken breast, cooked and shredded
• 4 slices Uncooked turkey bacon
• 1 medium Yellow onion, chopped
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 medium Russet potatoes, peeled and diced
• 2 cups Frozen corn kernels
• 4 cups Low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 cup Skim milk
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the turkey bacon slices and cook until crisp, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the bacon, crumble it, and set aside.

Step 2

In the same pot, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Add the diced potatoes, chicken broth, salt, black pepper, and paprika to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

Step 4

Stir in the shredded chicken and frozen corn. Cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk the skim milk and cornstarch together until smooth. Slowly pour this mixture into the pot, stirring constantly, to thicken the chowder. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the soup has slightly thickened.

Step 6

Remove the pot from heat and stir in the crumbled turkey bacon. Adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.

Step 7

Ladle the chowder into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
