Ingredients
2 chicken breasts, cut into small pieces
2 Slice of bacon chopped
2 leeks, finely chopped
1 large Onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1tbsp olive oil
20g butter
2 medium carrot, finely chopped
4 large potatos, chopped into cubes
30g plain flour
400ml chicken stock (made from stock cube)
400ml semi skimmed milk
Handful of chopped Coriander.

Method

1. In a large saucepan add the olive oil and gently cook the onions for about 1 minute until soft. Then add the butter, leeks, garlic, carrot bacon and chicken and continue to cook until the chicken has sealed and the leeks begin to soften, this will take about 5 minutes over a low-medium heat as you don’t want to brown any of the vegetables or the chicken.

2. Now stir in the flour and once incorporated, pour in the milk and chicken stock and bring to a simmer.

3. Finally add the potatoes and cook for about 20 minutes until the potatoes are soft over a medium heat stirring every so often. Season the chowder and just before serving add the chopped Coriander and mix well.
