I like to serve this hearty chowder with garlic bread and a salad. It's a wonderful dish to prepare when company drops in. The rich, mild flavor and tender chicken and vegetables appeal even to children and picky eaters. —Hazel Fritchie, Palestine, Illinois

SERVINGS: 6-8

CATEGORY: Soup

METHOD: Stovetop - One-Dish

TIME: Prep: 10 min. Cook: 25 min.

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups diced peeled potatoes
  • 1 cup diced carrots
  • 1 cup diced celery
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 cups (about 8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese

  • Re: Cheesy Chicken Chowder

    Just wondering if you've ever used canned white meat chicken. Would be a real time saver if you don't have chicken already cooked or need to cook it.
