How to Make Smoked Chicken Wild Mushroom And Corn Chowder

  1. Cook 4 slices of bacon in a large soup pot over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and reserve, reserving about 2 tablespoons of bacon fat in the pot.
  2. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 1 bell pepper, chopped, to the pot and cook in the bacon fat until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in 2 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels, 2 cups cooked and shredded smoked turkey (from approximately 2 smoked turkey legs), 2 cups diced potatoes, 1 cup sliced wild mushrooms, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Add 6 cups of water or chicken broth to the pot and bring to a boil.
  5. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
  6. While the chowder simmers, puree 1 cup of fresh or frozen corn kernels and 1 cup heavy cream in a blender until completely smooth.
  7. Stir the corn-cream puree and an additional 1 cup of heavy cream into the chowder.
  8. Heat through for about 5 minutes. Stir in the reserved crumbled bacon before serving.
