This is one of my favorite soup recipes. I actually got it from my sister in-law, who made it for me the first time when my husband and I were visiting them in Nebraska. So thank  Jill for giving this recipe to me a few year ago, so that I could share it with you all.  I have continued to make this recipe for my family, for friends, and other dinner parties I have hosted. Everyone I have made this yummy chowder for  a lot of people, and it’s always a hit, every time! I hope that your all enjoy this recipe as much as I have enjoyed making it and of course eating it with friends and family.

1  1/2 boneless skinless chicken breast ( I like to use chicken tenders because they are just easier to cook with for me)

1 /2 c. chopped onion

1-2 garlic cloves, minced ( You can use garlic powder)

3 T of butter

2 chicken bouillon cubes

1 cup of hot water

1/2-1 tsp ground cumin

Add to pan along with cumin and bring to a boil. Reduce heat cover and simmer for 5 minutes. Add cream, cheese, corn and chillies. Cook and stir over low heat until the cheese melts. Stir in tomatoes. Serve with a hot sauce for those who like it hot.
