Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

02

Step

Melt 1 tablespoon butter in an oven-proof skillet over medium heat; stir in corn and tarragon and cook, stirring occasionally, until corn begins to brown, about 5 minutes.

03

Step

Place the skillet with corn in the preheated oven; roast, stirring every 5 minutes, until lightly browned but not dry, about 20 minutes.

04

Step

Place bacon in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat; cook, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove bacon slices; drain on paper towels. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon bacon fat.

05

Step

Heat reserved bacon fat in the Dutch oven over medium heat; stir in onion. Cook and stir until onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook and stir until onion is very tender and dark brown, about 15 minutes.

06

Step

Pour chicken stock over caramelized onions; stir, scraping the bottom of the pot to dissolve any browned bits. Bring to a boil. Stir in corn, potatoes, parsley, garlic, celery, and paprika. Crumble bacon, reserving about 1/4 cup for garnish, and stir bacon into soup. Reduce heat to low; simmer until potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes.

07

Step

Stir remaining 2 tablespoons butter and half-and-half into soup; season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle reserved bacon and Cheddar cheese over soup to serve.

For an even richer flavor, use smoked paprika instead of regular paprika.
To make this chowder vegetarian, omit the bacon and use vegetable stock.
Adjust the amount of chicken stock to achieve your desired consistency.
A splash of hot sauce adds a nice kick.

    The celery flakes were a nice touch. I never would have thought to add them.

    I didn't have any fresh parsley, so I used dried. It still turned out great!

    I made this for a dinner party and everyone raved about it. It's a new family favorite!
