Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 400˚F. Wash and dry all produce.
  • Cut ciabatta into 1-inch pieces.
  • Remove any brown spots from potatoes, then peel and cut into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels, then cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
Make garlic-cheddar croutons
2
  • To a parchment-lined baking sheet, add ciabatta.
  • Drizzle 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil over top. Season with pepper and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) garlic salt, then toss to coat.
  • Toast in the middle of the oven for 8-10 min, until croutons are golden and crisp. 
  • Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven.
  • Sprinkle half the cheese over top. Continue toasting for 2-4 min, until melted.
Cook chicken and veggies
3
  • Meanwhile, heat a large pot over medium-high.
  • When the pot is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chicken.
  • Cook for 2-3 min, flipping once, until golden.
  • Add mirepoix. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring occasionally, until softened slightly.
  • Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Cook, stirring constantly, until melted.
  • Sprinkle Cream Sauce Spice Blend over top. Cook for 30 sec, stirring constantly, until chicken and veggies are coated.
Start chowder

  • To the pot, add potatoes, broth concentrate, remaining garlic salt and 1 1/2 cups (2 1/2 cups) water, then stir to combine, scraping up any bits on the bottom. 
  • Cover and bring to a boil over high.
  • Once boiling, reduce heat to medium.
  • Cook covered for 10-12 min, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are fork-tender and chicken is cooked through.** (TIP: For a thicker consistency, cook chowder uncovered for a few extra minutes.)
Finish chowder
5
  • Add 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) milk and remaining cheese to chowder.
  • Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until cheese melts. Season with pepper. (TIP: If chowder is too thick, add 1/4 cup water.)
