This Chicken and Corn Summer Chowder is indulgent for sure - not only is it packed with richness (one word: bacon, followed by two words: heavy cream), it is not exactly your quick Tuesday night standby. But, it's good to splurge a little sometimes, and this soup is truly worth it. How do I know? Not only have I been waiting all year to make it again, once I did, coworkers literally followed their noses to my lunch.I love how this soup not only utilizes fresh, ripe corn and tomatoes, but also capitalizes on garnish to balance out the richness of the cream. If the heavy cream scares you (don't let it), use just the minimum called for in the recipe - it will still be savory good. Another shortcut? Buy a rotisserie chicken in a pinch (but roast breasts on the bone if you have time).
