Follow The Directions

01

Step
10 mins

In a large saucepan, combine potatoes, mixed vegetables, onion, celery, parsley, and chicken broth over medium heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer gently until the vegetables are tender (approximately 10 minutes). Stir in the diced turkey and poultry seasoning.

02

Step
5 mins

In a small bowl, whisk together the half-and-half and all-purpose flour until smooth. Slowly stir this mixture into the hot soup, ensuring it's well incorporated. Continue to stir until the soup thickens slightly, achieving a desirable chowder-like consistency (approximately 5 minutes). Stir in the Sriracha sauce, salt, and pepper to taste.

03

Step

Ladle the chowder into bowls and garnish generously with crumbled bacon.

For a richer flavor, consider using homemade chicken stock. The quality of the broth greatly impacts the overall taste of the chowder.
Adjust the amount of Sriracha to your liking. Start with a small amount and add more until you reach your preferred level of spiciness.
If you don't have bacon, consider using a sprinkle of smoked paprika for a similar smoky flavor.
