Turn a bowl of corn chowder into dinner with the addition of fresh lump crabmeat and bacon.
How to Make It
Step 1
Cook the bacon over medium heat in a large soup pot. Remove bacon from the pot and place it on a paper towel to drain.
Step 2
Add the onion, celery, and fresh thyme to the soup pot; cook 3–4 minutes until softened.
Step 3
Whisk the milk and flour together; add to the pot. Add the chicken broth and potatoes, and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer until the potatoes are cooked through and the soup is thickened, about 15 minutes.
Step 4
Chop the bacon.
Step 5
Add the corn and cook 5 minutes. Stir in the crab, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and bacon; cook 2 minutes until heated through. Serve with crackers or flatbread, if desired.
