1. In a large pot: add chicken stalk/broth, potatoes, salt, and spices. Place on med-high heat until boiling then simmer.
2. Meanwhile: cook bacon until crispy but NOT burned. Spoon out bacon into pot.
3. Pour out all but one tablespoon of bacon fat from pan. Add your onion, celery, and pepper and cook until tender and onion is translucent. Add to pot.
4. Add corn and simmer 5 more min.
5. Place half of the mixture in the pot into a blender, add half&half and blend until smooth. Place back into pot and stir. Season to taste if needed.
6. Serve with crushed tortilla chips if desired.
*To kick this chowder up a notch and add more color, use blue corn chips and add a dollop of sour cream/plain greek yogurt and some extra bacon (cook 2 extra strips of bacon and reserve on the side until ready to serve).*

I love this soup, It looks so delicious and easy to make. I love making hot soups this time of year!
Hmm! Thank you for sharing. I’ve tried so many things but not your recipes. It’s quick, easy and also sounds yummy!
I love soups, the thicker and heartier the better. Soups are actually one of my favorite things about winter and I coul eat them just about every day.
I’m not a fan of sweet potatoes but I could see doing this with regular potatoes.
I love this and what a yummy soup! I am pinning this page to come back and try mailing this myself 😉 Thank you for sharing and love your site!
