Wineshark Recipe - 3. Chicken Chowder

This week I made two dishes, a soup and a lamb. Let's start with the soup. It is quite easy to make, especially if you don't want to deal with thickening. We need the following ingredients (this is for four people):

• Bacon - 4 strips
• Onion - half
• Celery - 3-4 stalks
• Potato - 2 pcs
• Whole Kernal Corn - 3/4 can
• Chicken Stock - 5-6 bowls
• Cooked Chicken - 4oz
• Seasoning: white pepper powder, salt, ground nutmeg

First prepare the chicken stock. To save time we can just use the off-the-shelf stock but remember to dilute it with the same amount of water. Since we also need to have some diced chicken, I actually put a couple of chicken breast to cook together, plus some celery and onion, with a piece of bay leaf and some black pepper.

Chop the bacon, onion, celery and potato into small pieces. Start with the bacon, stir fry till it smells good then add the onion. Continue to stir fry for about 5min and then put the celery, potato and chicken stock in to cook for another 15min.

When it is almost done, add some corn and the diced chicken. Add the seasoning and adjust accordingly.
