Servings: 6 Servings
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup white onion diced
- 4 garlic cloves
- 6 slices bacon pre-cooked and crumbled
- 4 gold potatoes cut into 1-inch cubes
- 12 ounces frozen corn
- 4 cups low sodium vegetable broth or chicken broth
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup half and half
- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Instructions
- First, turn Instant Pot to saute and add the oil and onions. Saute for 3-5 minutes until they soften. Add the garlic and saute another 30 seconds. Turn off the Instant Pot.1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 cup white onion, 4 garlic cloves
- Next, add the bacon, potatoes, corn, broth, thyme, salt and pepper. Set the valve to sealing, and use the manual/pressure cook button to set the Instant Pot to high pressure for 5 minutes. After the timer goes off, open the valve to complete a quick release of the pressure.6 slices bacon, 4 gold potatoes, 12 ounces frozen corn, ½ teaspoon dried thyme, 4 cups low sodium vegetable broth
- Then, in a small bowl or large, glass measuring cup, mix the half and half and flour. Whisk until well-combined. Set aside.1 cup half and half, 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- After that, remove the lid from the Instant Pot, and turn on the saute function. Slowly add the half and half/flour mixture while stirring. As the chowder heats and begins to boil, it will thicken. This usually takes about 5 minutes.
- Last, garnish with anything you desire and serve. We topped our chowder with diced green onions.
