Savor the Southwest in every spoonful of this quick-assembly corn chowder that delivers remarkable flavor with minimal effort. Cream-style corn creates velvety texture while green chilies and southwestern spices provide gentle heat. Convenient ingredients like frozen onions and canned chicken make this hearty soup possible in minutes, while the finishing touch of low-fat milk keeps it lighter than traditional cream-based chowders. Top with a sprinkle of Mexican-blend cheese for an easy weeknight meal that tastes like it simmered all day.
