Cheesy Chicken Poblano Chowder Recipes

Steps:

• In a 4-quart saucepan, bring chicken broth to a boil. Reduce heat; add the potatoes, carrots, celery, onion, salt and pepper. Cover and simmer for 12-15 minutes or until vegetables are tender., Meanwhile, melt butter in a medium saucepan; stir in flour until smooth. Gradually stir in milk. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Reduce heat; add cheese, stirring until melted; add to broth along with chicken. Cook and stir until heated through.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack at about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. 2. Cut the peppers in half from top to bottom; remove the stem, seeds, and ribs, then place the peppers cut-side-down onto the prepared baking sheet. 3. Cook under the preheated broiler until the skin of the peppers has blackened and blistered, about 5 minutes. Place the blackened peppers into a bowl, and tightly seal with plastic wrap. Allow the peppers to steam as they cool, about 20 minutes. Once cool, remove the skins and discard. Dice the roasted peppers. 4. While the peppers are cooling, melt the butter in a pot over medium heat. Whisk in the flour, and stir until the mixture becomes paste-like and light golden brown, about 5 minutes. Gradually whisk the chicken broth into the flour mixture, and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook and stir until the mixture is thick and smooth, about 10 minutes. 5. Stir in the diced peppers, diced chicken, corn, black beans, Cheddar cheese, and pepper jack cheese. Season with cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer, and simmer until the cheese has melted and the soup is hot, about 10 minutes. Serve sprinkled with tortilla chips.

Steps:

• 1. Grill or broil the poblano peppers until skin is charred, place in a glass bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap, set aside for five minutes.
• 2. While the peppers are set aside, melt the butter over medium-high heat, whisk in flour and continue to stir for a few minutes to remove the flour taste. Whisk the half & half in slowly. Whisk the cheese in until melted and the mixture is thickened, add the chicken broth. Stir or whisk to thoroughly combine.
• 3. Turn heat to medium-low. Remove the poblanos from the bowl, peel the skins under running water; slice, seed and finely chop. Seed and chop the serrano or jalapeno. Rinse, dry and finely chop the roasted red pepper. Add all to the soup.
• 4. Drain and rinse the black beans, add them along with the chicken, corn and all seasonings to the soup. Stir well, simmer over low heat for 20-30 minutes to heat through and allow flavors to combine.

Steps:

• In a large soup pot, saute carrots, onion, celery, garlic, poblanos, salt, pepper, cumin and thyme until vegetables are crisp-tender.
• Add stock, cilantro and chicken and cook several minutes more.
• In a saucepan, melt butter and add flour.
• Cook flour, stirring, for 2-3 minutes, over low heat, but do not brown like a roux.
• Add a cup of the soup to the flour and whisk briskly, then add two more, one at a time, whisking briskly after each addition.
• Pour the mixture into the soup pot and stir, cooking and stirring the soup constantly until the soup thickens, about 3-5 minutes more.
• Blend in the cream and hot sauce, remove from heat, and serve.
