Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 4 cups vegetable broth
• 3 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
• 3 cups frozen corn kernels
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the butter and olive oil in a large pot over medium heat until the butter is melted.

Step 2

Add the diced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Sprinkle the flour over the onions and garlic, stirring constantly to create a roux, and cook for 1 minute.

Step 5

Gradually pour in the vegetable broth, whisking to combine and prevent lumps.

Step 6

Add the diced potatoes to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

Step 7

Stir in the frozen corn kernels, heavy cream, salt, pepper, and paprika. Simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes until the chowder is heated through and slightly thickened.

Step 8

Taste the chowder and adjust seasonings if needed.

Step 9

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