Chicken, Corn & Edamame Chowder with Roasted Potato
I’ve made chowder once before and by all means it was okay. But when I came across a recipe by a fellow Food Blogger by the name of Nami of Just One Cookbook, I had to give it a try. The main difference between this recipe and the one I had done previously, was the use of Rotisserie Chicken and Roasted Potatoes. Those two by themselves sound like pure yum, and then I made a soup out of it.
Nami’s version called for a cup of Heavy Cream as the thickening agent for this recipe. To substitute, I was prepared to make a roux of some kind on the fly, but thankfully, Nami was able to tell me her quick trick (as listed in the recipe) in under 140 characters while I was preparing the chowder. Yay Nami! I omitted the bacon (I know, maybe next time) and added Edamame for a nice pop of colour and because I like the added fibre and protein ๐
I can’t tell you how happy I was to make this chowder. I look forward to making it again. I will not omit the bacon, though ~ that’s a promise ๐ Here is myย amendedย recipe below.
This chowder was just lovely!

Hi Lyn! Thank you for trying this recipe! I’m glad you liked it. I was happy to help you with twitter (which I don’t normally use! lol). It’s going to be cold and will rain in a few days here. It’s a perfect time to prepare another soup recipe. Stay warm! p.s. I have shared your link on my facebook fan page. Hope it was okay with you. ๐
I’m excited to see what soup you are going to make next, Nami ๐ Thanks for the shout out on Facebook! How awesome of you to do so ๐ Talk soon!
