This chowder if full of Mexican Street Corn flavors.
It is packed with delicious ingredients and leaves you full and satisfied.
Tis the season for soup, chilis and chowder.
The only reason I love the weather change here in Utah is because I can eat soup.
Ok, lets be real. I eat soup all year long, even when it’s 100 degrees here in the summer. I also eat Mexican Street Corn whenever I can because it is so delicious. There is a place not far from us who has the best corn and I love summer because corn is in abundance. We can still have those delicious flavors and I’ve added them to this corn chowder. It is full of flavor and I added some chicken to it to fill my families hungry bellies even more.
For this recipe I used a pre-made rotisserie chicken because it is so convenient and I need quick meals during the week. You could also make this with some chicken breasts but this time I went with something easier. Throw it all together and top with your favorite toppings (don’t worry, you don’t have to add cilantro) for all of you peeps who taste soap when you eat it.
I hope you love this as much as we do.
Don’t forget to pin the recipe for later.

Is it two cans of creamed corn? I’m confused about the ounces in there but I’m think it’s supposed to be two cans right?
Hi. You are correct, it is two cans. I just corrected the recipe. Thanks for catching that.
