Ingredients

4 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and diced

1 lb (450g) smoked sausage, sliced

1 medium onion, chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

4 cups (950ml) chicken broth

1 cup (240ml) heavy cream

1 cup (150g) frozen corn

2 stalks celery, chopped

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and celery, sautéing until they become translucent, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Add the sliced smoked sausage to the pot, cooking until browned, about 4-5 minutes.

To the pot, add the diced potatoes, chicken broth, dried thyme, paprika, and season with salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.

Stir in the frozen corn and heavy cream. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the chowder to thicken slightly.

Adjust seasoning as necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or paprika to taste.

Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley for a touch of color.

- Presentation Tips: Serve the chowder in deep bowls, and consider adding a sprinkle of smoked paprika on top for extra flavor and a pop of color. A slice of crusty bread on the side pairs perfectly!
