This soup is from one of the Weeknight Menu books (the one with the bacon-wrapped cider pork steaks). Another winner!
I pretty much followed the recipe as is, except I used the crispy diced bacon as a garnish rather than incorporating into the soup (I don't like soft bacon). I also used a tall can of corn, drained, in place of the frozen. This was pretty spicy so you may want to cut back on the 2 tablespoons of chipotle. I did not swap out the heavy cream for a less fattening substitute as a I know some people like to do. I do it myself for some things but I think I make about 2-3 chowders per year so when I do it I want the cream - LOL. Very silky texture.
I don't know if was my red potatoes (they had been in pantry for a couple of weeks) but it took longer than the 15 minutes at a simmer for them to soften enough. Served with garlic bread.
Another solid 8+ recipe.
