Directions Roasted Corn Chowder
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
Melt 1 tablespoon butter in an oven-proof skillet over medium heat, stir in corn and tarragon and cook, stirring occasionally, until corn begins to brown, about 5 minutes.
Place skillet with corn in the preheated oven, roast, stirring every 5 minutes, until lightly browned but not dry, about 20 minutes.
Place bacon in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat, cook, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove bacon slices, drain on paper towels. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon bacon fat.
Heat reserved bacon fat in Dutch oven over medium heat, stir in onion. Cook and stir until onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low, and continue to cook and stir until the onion is very tender and dark brown, about 15 minutes.
Pour chicken stock over caramelized onions, stir, scraping the bottom of the pot to dissolve any browned bits, and bring to a boil. Stir corn, potatoes, parsley, garlic, celery, and paprika into onion mixture. Crumble bacon, reserving about 1/4 cup for garnish, and stir bacon into soup. Reduce heat to low, simmer until potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes.
Stir remaining 2 tablespoons butter and half-and-half into soup, season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle reserved bacon and Cheddar cheese over soup to serve.
