Here is a recipe for a creamy corn and potato chowder with bacon:

Ingredients:

– 4 slices of bacon, chopped
– 1 medium onion, diced
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 3 cups diced potatoes (about 3-4 medium potatoes)
– 2 cups corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
– 4 cups chicken broth
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 cup milk
– 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. **Cook the Bacon:**
– In a large pot, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon pieces and set them aside on a paper towel-lined plate. Leave about 2 tablespoons of bacon fat in the pot.

2. **Sauté the Aromatics:**
– Add the diced onion to the pot with the bacon fat and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

3. **Cook the Potatoes:**
– Add the diced potatoes to the pot and stir to combine with the onions and garlic. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 10-15 minutes.

4. **Add the Corn:**
– Stir in the corn kernels and let the soup simmer for another 5 minutes.

5. **Make the Cream Mixture:**
– In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, milk, and flour until smooth. Slowly pour this mixture into the pot, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Let the soup simmer for another 5-10 minutes until it thickens.
