Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1.5 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes diced
  • 16 oz frozen sweet corn
  • 1 large yellow onion chopped
  • 2 ribs celery chopped
  • 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper or to taste
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • Optional garnishes: cooked bacon, chives, shredded cheddar

Equipment

  • 1 Slow Cooker (6-quart or larger)
  • 1 Cutting Board
  • 1 Knife

Method
 

  1. Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of a 6-quart or larger slow cooker. Top with diced potatoes, frozen corn, chopped onion, and celery.
  2. Pour the chicken broth over the ingredients. Sprinkle with dried thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
  4. Carefully remove the chicken from the slow cooker and place on a cutting board. Use two forks to shred the chicken, then return it to the slow cooker and stir.
  5. In a separate small bowl, whisk the heavy cream and all-purpose flour together until smooth. Stir this slurry into the slow cooker.
  6. Cover and cook on HIGH for an additional 20-30 minutes, or until the chowder has thickened.
  7. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if necessary. Serve hot, topped with your favorite garnishes like crumbled bacon, fresh chives, and shredded cheese.
