Got and adapted this recipe from Bon Appetite. Quick, easy and really really good. The recipe calls for the peppers sauteed. I actually leave out the peppers until the very end and add with the corn kernels. Serving with sour cream is a must. Enjoy!! Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter (1/2 stick) |
1 small onion, chopped |
1 cup red pepper, diced (or green, yellow or orange) |
1 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more if you want really spicy) |
1/4 cup flour |
1 cup canned chicken broth |
1 cup whole milk (do not use low-fat or non-fat) |
1 (16 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained and reserve liquid |
1 (16 ounce) can cream-style corn |
frozen corn |
1 cup cilantro, chopped medium (add more to taste) |
Directions:
1. Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium heat.
2. Add onion, peppers, cumin and cayenne and saute until vegetables are tender, about 8 minutes.
3. Add flour and stir for 1 minute.
4. Gradually mix in broth , milk and reserve corn liquid. Bring mixture to a boil, whisking until smooth.
5. Mix in canned corn and creamed corn and stir. I always add another cup or so of frozen corn (because I always have frozen corn to use up).
6. Heat soup until all of corn is heated through. Add cilantro and stir.
7. Ladle into bowls and garnish with sour cream.
