Chicken Bacon Corn Chowder Recipe

• 2 -16 oz. containers of chicken broth
• 4 cups of pre-cooked chicken shredded in large chunks or chicken breast chopped  (I used chicken I had previously cooked in my crock pot and pulled off the bone.)
• 5 cups of fresh, canned or frozen corn
• 1 pkg. sliced bacon, chopped, pre-cooked and drained
• 2- 15 oz. cans of black beans drained and rinsed
• 2-3 tablespoons of flour
• 1 1/2 cups of milk (I used 2- 13.66 0z Thai Canned Coconut milk to make this recipe dairy free, and give it a different flavor. It was very good! Feel free to use whatever milk you like)
• Salt
• Pepper
• Garlic powder

How To Make Chicken Bacon Corn Chowder

• In a large soup pot combine chicken broth and chicken and heat to a simmer.
• Add corn and black beans.
• In a small bowl make a rue to thicken soup.  Just stir together 2-3 TBSP of flour and some drops of water till it is the consistency of thick cream.  Pour the rue into the simmering pot and whisk in to thicken soup slightly.
• Add bacon and milk.
• Season to taste with salt, pepper and garlic powder
• Once all the ingredients are heated through and well combined serve in bowls with a side salad and bread!

I hope you enjoy this wonderful chicken bacon corn chowder.  It was a big hit in our home and I hope it will be for yours as well!
