I substituted one 15 oz. can of crushed tomatoes for the chopped and added considerably more spice - we like the heat! I did not get a lot of corn taste - maybe it needs a little more?

Love it! Have made this several times and my picky 8 year old daughter jumps for joy when she hears that this soup is what's for dinner. I use chicken thighs instead of breasts. A much better flavor and texture for our family. Yum. Thanks for the recipe!

This soup was good, but at the same time, it was a disappointment. Maybe I was just expecting more because of the near consistent rave reviews it was getting. One of the problems is that the chicken tastes very bland like this. The soup itself tastes great, but when you bite into a piece of chicken, it is not flavorful at all. Otherwise, it is pretty good.

Love the recipe just as it is. Haven't served it to a single person who didn't ask for the recipe afterwards. Easily adaptable to suit individual tastes and diet requirements without losing any of it's original goodness. GREAT RECIPE, JEANNE JONES!! Thank you!

This recipes is awesome! This was my first attempt at making a corn chowder and my family loved it! The only thing extra I did was add more corn. I added two extra cans of corn on top of the creamed corn and it was wonderful. You might want to double the batch to make extra because the first batch won't last long! Thanks so much for this recipe.

Made again today so I'm updating my review! This is an awesome recipe base to use. I tweak in the following ways: make home-made chicken (or turkey) stock, shred the poultry, use 4 cups stock, 4 cups half & half, 2 tsp cumin, 2 tsp hot sauce, 1 diced tomato, 1 can creamed corn, 1 can kernel corn drained, 1 can green chilis, ceyenne pepper to taste, salt and black pepper, 1 bag shredded colby jack cheese. This makes a lot of soup but is even better the next day. I also add a handful of fresh cilantro to the soup while cooking. Very tasty!!!

I thought this recipe was wonderful. The chiles and hot pepper sauce was just the extra touch it needed. It was easy and delicious.

I also added frozen corn and a can of black beans for more substance. You can also add salsa for kick. Versatile recipe.

Fabulous' Tweaked the recipe a bit as we like food with a bit more zip and zing. Added three cloves of garlic, not just one. Also sprinkled red pepper flakes on chicken as it was cooking in the butter. Used one can of corn, one small bag of frozen corn - no creamed corn at all. Added one tablespoon red pepper paste (like the kind they have in Chinese restaurants) instead of Tabasco. One mistake -- mine -- was to add dried cilantro. Floated around the chowder in kind of an unattractive presentation, but did not have fresh cilantro. All in all, fantastic and easy to do. Great soup for a cold winter day.

Great recipe! I changed a few things... 3 cubes of chicken bouillon, 2 cups of water, fat free half & half, half frozen corn, half cream-sytle corn, and a can of rotel instead of a tomato. I forgot to add the diced green chiles, but it still has a great flavor! I also boiled my chicken then shredded it. Thanks for the recipe!

Good recipe! I added more regular corn and hominy, I also cooked the cilantro in the soup and used skim evaporated milk instead of 1/2 and 1/2. Crushed tortilla chips on top made it more kid-friendly for me.

This was pretty good. I too used leftover roasted chicken which made it easy to make, but I felt it lacked something. Definitely needs some tabasco for zip, and...? I might try this again, and make some adjustments to see if I can improve upon it somehow. Worth trying, but not a dynamite recipe.

This soup is wonderful! A nice hearty soup. Would definitely qualify as comfort food! I added 1 tsp of cumin, 1 tsp of chili powder, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika(the most amazing kiss from God for soup!!! warm and smokey flavor!!!),1 large carrot shredded, 2 potatoes in big chunks and an added can of corn. If you don't like the big chunks of chicken, you can boil your chicken breasts and shred it (when cooled) with your fingers. It gives a much smoother consistancy! On a scale of 1 to 10....my husband gave it an 11!! :)

I forgot to add this to my review! As far as the corn goes, I added the one can of cream corn the recipe called for, one can of whole kernel corn and a can of the mexican corn with the milti colored bell peppers in it! very pretty and delicious to boot! It was almost like a stew, and that is how we like it!
