Directions
| 1. | In a saucepan, pan fry bacon until cooked crisp. Remove from pan and place on a paper towel to drain. Keep about 2 Tbs. bacon fat in the pan and save the rest for future cooking! | |
| 2. | To the bacon fat, add the onion and peppers, sautéing until soft (about 5-6 minutes). | |
| 3. | Add the chicken broth and potatoes and bring to a simmer. Simmer covered for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are almost completely cooked. | |
| 4. | Add corn, coconut milk, parsley, salt & pepper and cook for another 5-6 minutes. *If you like your chowder super thick, mix 1 Tbs. cornstarch or arrowroot starch in a little extra coconut milk, whisk, and then add to the chowder pot, stirring for a few more minutes until thickened. | |
| 5. | Pour soup into bowls and top with lots of crumbled bacon! |

I was just wondering what size of a can of chicken broth you used? It just seems like this wouldn’t be enough for a family of four with one can of broth. Did you keep the liquid from the corn, too?
I do drain the corn and use a 14 ounce can of chicken broth. This should be enough for four 1 cup servings (we serve ours with sandwiches). Double the recipe if you want this as a main course.
