Total Time: 40 minutes

Made with an abundance of corn, shredded chicken breast, and vegetables, this low salt soup is hard to resist.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups of cooked shredded chicken breast
  • 2 cups of unsalted chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup of celery, chopped
  • 1/2 cup of onion, chopped
  • 1 cup of unsalted corn (canned, frozen, or fresh)
  • 1 cup of sweet red pepper, diced
  • 2 cups of milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter
  • 3 tablespoons of flour

Instructions

  1. In a Dutch Oven, melt butter and sauté celery, onion, corn, and red pepper over medium-high heat for about five minutes, stirring frequently.
  2. When veggies have softened, add flour and stir until flour coats the vegetables, about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Add milk, pepper, and broth to the pan and mix well. Cover and simmer on medium heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Do not allow it to come to a rapid boil.
  4. Add the cooked chicken, cover, and let simmer on low for another 20 minutes.
  5. Garnish with dried parsley or green onion if desired.

Notes

  • You can use the corn of your choice: canned (unsalted), frozen, or fresh. But I would suggest making this at least once with some fresh summer corn while it is in season.
  • I like using Wondra Gold Metal Quick-Mixing Flour in my soups. I find that the fine texture of Wondra dissolves more quickly than all-purpose flour, making it perfect to use in a soup or gravy.
