CHICKEN CHILI CHOWDER
During my second pregnancy I looked in the mirror and thought I had chocolate on my face.
And while it’s not that uncommon to find chocolate on my face (hell0 bus stop, gym, and church), these brown spots wouldn’t rub off. Pregnancy mask. Ugh. Anyone else have this?
Basically it looks like I have a brown speckled mask on my cheeks, forehead, and lips. I’m an avid sunblock wearer but I’m sure there are some sunspots in there too.
This fall I’m determined to turn back time. I want to try to get rid of it. So first I looked for Groupons for facials and even bought some.
But every time I showed up for an appointment, no one was there. Although the culture here seems to be if it rains then no one has to go to work.
That could be it. Anyway, I finally got my first lactic acid peel Tuesday at a reputable place.
The technician said, “You’ll look fine today and tomorrow, but you don’t have anything going on Thursday, do you?”
“Uh, Bunko.”
“Yeah, you might not want to go,” she said. “You’re going to look like a lizard.”
Guess who went to Bunko looking like a lizard molting her skin? (me raising my hand)
Supposedly I’m going to look great after but I can’t afford to go into hiding for 4 days if I ever do this again. I’ve got kids that need to go to soccer, piano, and school.
It’s not logistically possible to not leave the house for four days.
You guys. This Chicken Chili Chowder. It’s so easy! I made it for dinner and only one out of five children gagged. That, my friends, is a success.
Chicken, corn, salsa verde, beans, and cheese. It screams fall – which happened to begin yesterday if you didn’t know. You wouldn’t know it because it’s 87 degrees here (feels like 105). Enjoy!

Notes
Can I do the slow cooker?
Yes!
Hello! I just wanted to say that this turned out so so good! My husband and I have an ongoing list of what his favorite dinners are. He will usually taste the dish and tell whether it goes on our list, and this one made the cut!! Our basement flooded yesterday due to the storms and rain happening in the Midwest, so my poor husband has been working non stop for two days straight, doing manual labor trying to pull up our carpet and move all of our belongings. I whipped this recipe up for him and it was the motivation he needed to take a break finally! So hearty and wonderful! I topped it off with tricolor tortilla strips, shredded cheese, and sour cream! If you are thinking about cooking this, think no further! It’s easy and delicious. I just threw some frozen chicken in the instant pot, sliced up the taters, measured out all the spices and put them in a tiny bowl. Once the chicken was done, everything else was lemon squeezy!!
Thanks!
I’m so sorry about your basement and so glad he liked it!
So yummy! I used my instant pot but would love to know how you suggest to adjust the recipe when using an instantpot.
So I would use the sautee on the instant pot to cook the onions. Or just omit the oil, add everything else including uncooked chicken. I would cook for 20-25 minutes on high pressure.
How would this freeze? I make meals for hubby to take with him to pull out of the freezer for when his job has him away for awhile or if I am out of town.
I think you could totally freeze it in a ziplock bag.
Yum! I make a Chicken Corn Bacon Chowder, but this looks like a fun recipe to try instead of doing that the next time! 🙂
Bacon can only be a good thing.
Uh, holy delicious. This looks SO darn tasty and so hearty– perfect for my family of big eaters! I’ve gotta try this ASAP!
Thanks Karly. I have some of your recipes I have on my to make list.
This looks amazing! I need to try it asap!
