Nothing warms you from the inside out on cold winter days like this Easy Chicken Corn Chowder recipe. This is one of my family’s all time favorite recipes.
Easy Chicken Corn Chowder Recipe
This creamy Chicken Corn Chowder recipe is so hearty and rich and chocked full of yummy veggies. And, it’s laced with golden nuggets of sweet corn. Pure perfection served in a bowl.
Oh, and did I mention the bacon? Bacon, cheese, chicken and corn. Really…does it get any better?

On cold days, there is nothing like a big bowl of soup and some fresh, crusty bread for dinner…or lunch…or both.
Some people are in the “soup is not a dinner” camp. However, one taste of this Chicken Corn Chowder soup and I think they would change camps.
This is so hearty, rich and satisfying, it’s sure to fill you up and warm you up too. Plus, it’s full of amazing bacon flavor that takes it over the top!
When I was pregnant with my son, I had a serious craving for this soup. I’ll never forget the day. It’s etched forever in my memory.
It was a cold, rainy Sunday. I knew I wanted to make this Chicken Corn Chowder soup. It was perfect because there is no garlic in the soup and I had a terrible aversion to garlic when I was pregnant. Normally, I loved it (still do) but during those 9 months, no sir! I wanted no part of the stuff.
MY husband and I headed to the grocery store to get what we needed to make this easy Chicken Corn Chowder recipe. And, while we were there, I picked up a loaf of fresh baked crusty bread. I had visions of a perfect rainy day dinner in my head.
The soup took no time at all to make and before I knew it, we were about to sit down to eat.
I pulled out the bread and sliced into it. And, it hit me like a ton of bricks.
GARLIC!
I had mistakenly purchased bread that had cloves of garlic baked into it.
We all know how rational hormonal pregnant women are and I was no different. I immediately burst into tears and ran outside.
There I was, standing in the rain, refusing to eat because of the garlic.
My poor husband had no clue what to do. He offered to run and get me a new loaf of bread. Anything to make me stop crying and come back inside.
Eventually I did but I’ll never forget the feeling that came over me that evening. Mother Nature can be wicked sometimes.
Serving Ideas for this Creamy Chicken Corn Chowder Recipe
- Serve a big bowl of this Chicken Corn Chowder soup with a hunk of crusty bread (with or without garlic – whichever you prefer). This soup just screams to be sopped up with bread.
- Pick up a round loaf of bread from the bakery, hollow it out and serve the soup in a bread bowl. YUM!
- Make extra soup and have it for lunch later in the week. The flavors only get better as it sits.
Tips for Making Chicken Corn Chowder Soup
- Purchase pre-cut veggies from the grocery store to save prep time. Most grocery stores have them in the produce department or in the freezer section.
- Make this recipe vegetarian by omitting the chicken and bacon. There’s so much flavor, you won’t even miss it.
- Skip a step use a pre-cooked rotisserie chicken instead of raw chicken.

This sounds delicious. Have made my copy and will try it soon. Thanks for sharing. My favorite soup to make on a cold day is a Potato Soup recipe that my mother always made. Comfort food at it’s finest. It always reminds me of my mother when I make it and I top it with shredded cheddar. You question brought back a very pleasant memory.

Momma Mindy says
Our current favorite is a white bean/chicken soup my daughter kinda’ invented, but since she is one of those amazing dump cookers, I don’t have a recipe yet. We have been making soup about once a week now that the cold weather has set in. It isn’t just good for dinner, it is good for scenting the house all afternoon while it simmers.
itsakeeper says
You said it, Momma Mindy! I love it when my whole house is filled with the aroma of yummy soup!
Thanks for stopping by!

Sounds yummy and perfect for the winter months. We love potato soup (the recipe is on my blog) when it starts to get cold outside.
Thanks for linking up to Making Your Home Sing Monday! As I mentioned previously, I did not see a courtesy link back to my blog.
It’s just a courtesy link, but also enables your readers to see what other meme participants are up to. I would appreciate it if you would do that! A link to the meme instructions are on my post if you need them. Thank you!
