How to Make A Lighter Corn Chowder
- In a medium saucepan, combine 4 cups vegetable broth, 2 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels, 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion, 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup milk and 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour until smooth.
- Gradually whisk the milk-flour mixture into the simmering corn mixture.
- Cook, stirring constantly, until the chowder thickens and comes to a gentle simmer (about 2-3 minutes).
- Cook for 1 additional minute, stirring constantly, to ensure the flour is fully cooked and the chowder has reached your desired consistency.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Garnish with fresh herbs (optional) before serving.
