ingredients
- 1 pound andouille sausage
- 2 cups corn kernels
- 1 large diced onion
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 large diced carrot
- 1 stalk diced celery
- 2 large russet potatoes, diced
- 28 ounces san marzano tomatoes
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
Method
Step 1
In a large pot, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook until browned, about 7 minutes. Remove the sausage with a slotted spoon and set aside.
Step 2
In the same pot, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the onion, carrot, celery, and garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Add the diced potatoes to the pot with the onions and garlic. Pour in the chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until the potatoes begin to soften, about 10 minutes.
Step 4
Stir in the tomatoes (with their juice) and corn kernels. Bring the soup back to a simmer. Simmer for 10 more minutes.
Step 5
Return the cooked sausage to the pot. Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and pepper to taste. Allow the mixture to simmer for 5 minutes.
Step 6
Ladle the chowder into bowls. Serve with loaf bread.
