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.
