Ingredients
- For the chowder:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 yellow onions, chopped
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 (4-ounce) cans chopped green chiles
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more, to taste
- 2 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground red pepper
- 6 cups chicken stock or bone broth
- 3 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cut into bite-sized chunks
- 4 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded
- 2 (15-ounce) cans black beans, drained and rinsed
- 2 cups frozen corn kernels
- 1 (8-ounce) package sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
- Optional, for serving:
- avocado, to taste, sliced
- scallions, to taste, sliced
- pico de gallo, to taste
- lime wedges, to taste
Directions
Step 1 -In a large Dutch oven or stockpot over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and allow it to heat until it is shimmering.
Step 2 -Add the onions to the hot oil and cook, while stirring, until softened, about 8-10 minutes.
Step 3 -Add the butter and the green chiles and their juices to the onions and cook, while stirring, until the butter melts.
Step 4 -Add the flour, 2 teaspoons of the salt, the chili powder, the cumin, and the ground red pepper to the onion mixture and cook, while stirring, until the flour is absorbed and the spices are fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Step 5 -Add the chicken broth and the potatoes to the Dutch oven and bring the soup mixture to a boil.
Step 6 -Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15 minutes.
Step 7 -Using a slotted spoon, transfer about 3 cups of the potatoes from the Dutch oven to a separate bowl. It is okay if there are a few of the other ingredients in the scoops, too.
Step 8 -Using an immersion blender, purée the soup mixture in the Dutch oven into a smooth soup.
Step 9 -Add the reserved potatoes, the chicken, the beans, and the corn to the soup mixture in the Dutch oven and cook until heated through.
Step 10 -Add the cheese to the soup and stir until it is melted.
Step 11 -Season the soup with the extra salt and the black pepper.
Step 12 -Serve with your favorite toppings.
