Slow Cooker Chicken Corn Chowder
Feast your eyes on this beautifully creamy chowder! It’s rich, filling, and bursting with flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup diced onion
- 1 cup diced carrots
- 1 cup diced celery
- 1 can (15 oz) sweet corn, drained
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Start by placing the chicken breasts at the bottom of your slow cooker. There’s no need to cook them beforehand—they will become perfectly tender as they simmer.
- Add the diced onion, carrots, and celery over the chicken. These vegetables will add a great base flavor to the chowder.
- Next, add the sweet corn, chicken broth, minced garlic, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper to the slow cooker. Stir gently to combine all ingredients.
- Cover the slow cooker and set it on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours. The longer you let it cook, the more tender the chicken will be.
- Once the cooking time is up, remove the chicken breasts and shred them using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker.
- Finally, stir in the heavy cream to give your chowder that rich and creamy texture. Let it cook for an additional 15 minutes on low.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs if you like. This Slow Cooker Chicken Corn Chowder is not just a meal; it’s a warm embrace in a bowl that everyone will enjoy.
