Corn Chowder Soup [0001088] Ingredients: 4 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels 4 slices bacon, chopped (ensure it's gluten-free) 1 onion, finely chopped 2 cloves garlic, minced 4 cups gluten-free chicken or vegetable broth 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced 1 cup gluten-free milk (dairy or dairy-free) Salt and black pepper to taste Fresh chives or green onions, chopped (for garnish) Instructions: In a large soup pot, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until it becomes crispy. Remove the bacon from the pot and set it aside, leaving the bacon grease in the pot. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the bacon grease and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the onions are translucent. Stir in the diced potatoes and corn kernels, and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Pour in the gluten-free chicken or vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. Use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup, leaving some chunks for texture. Stir in the gluten-free milk and season the soup with salt and black pepper to taste. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes to heat through. Serve your Gluten-Free Corn Chowder hot, garnished with the crispy bacon pieces and chopped fresh chives or green onions. Enjoy this hearty and gluten-free chowder!
