Ingredients

  • 1½ lb chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
  • 3 cups corn kernels
  • 1½ lb yellow potatoes, diced
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1½ cups milk
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 3 green onions, sliced

Directions

  1. 1Add chicken, corn, potatoes, onion, celery, broth, and thyme to the slow cooker.
  2. 2Cover and cook on LOW for 5–6 hours, until the chicken and potatoes are tender.
  3. 3Transfer the chicken to a plate, shred it, and return it to the cooker.
  4. 4Melt butter in a saucepan, whisk in flour, and cook for 1 minute.
  5. 5Gradually whisk in milk and simmer until thick enough to coat a spoon.
  6. 6Stir the milk mixture and cream into the chowder; cook on HIGH for 15 minutes.

💡 Do not add the dairy at the beginning; stirring it in after thickening keeps the chowder smooth.
